Hosea 5-7

God also gets angry at Judah. The punishments go be visited on Ephraim will also go to Judah. God will allow bad things to happen to them and then they will seek God in earnest.

Interestingly, chapter 6 verse 9 says that the priests of Israel were engaged in murder like common criminals. I am not sure how literally to read this.

God is also angry that Ephraim turned to Assyria and Egypt for help. (7:11). God calls this senseless as a dove.
