# So I have cut them to pieces by the prophets

Through his prophets, Yahweh has pronounced destruction on the rebellious nation. The destruction, here called "cutting to pieces," is as sure as the condemnation. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# Your judgments are like the light that shines out

Yahweh has judged Ephraim [Hosea 6:4](./04.md) in a way that people can see plainly and cannot avoid. Alternate translation: "The judgments that have fallen on you are like the light that shines out" or "The way I have judged you" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])

# Your judgments

Some modern translations read, "My judgments," referring to the actions Yahweh has taken against Ephraim.
