Hosea 9:12-16
12 Though they bring up their children,
Yet I will bereave them of their children ▼
▼Lit without a person
until not a person is left. Yes, bwoe to them indeed when I depart from them!
13 Ephraim, as I have seen,
Is planted in a pasture like cTyre;
But Ephraim is going to bring out his children for slaughter.
14 Give to them, Lord --what will You give?
Give them a dmiscarrying womb and dried-up breasts.
15 All their evil is at eGilgal;
Indeed, I came to hate them there!
Because of the fwickedness of their deeds
I will drive them out of My house!
I will no longer love them;
All their leaders are grebels.
16 hEphraim is stricken, their root is dried up,
They will produce ino fruit.
Even though they give birth to children,
I will put to death the jprecious ones of their womb.
