Hosea 9:11-14

11 Ephraim’s ^aglory shall fly away like a bird—
^bno birth, no pregnancy, no conception!
12 ^cEven if they bring up children,
I will bereave them till none is left.
^dWoe to them
when ^eI depart from them!
13 Ephraim, ^fas I have seen, was like a young palm ^{▼▼Or like Tyre} planted in a meadow;
but ^hEphraim must lead his children out to slaughter. ^{▼▼Hebrew to him who slaughters}
14 Give them, O Lord—
what will you give?
Give them ^ja miscarrying womb
and dry breasts.
