18 I have heard ^aEphraim grieving,
‘You have disciplined me, and I was disciplined,
like an untrained calf;
^bbring me back that I may be restored,
for you are the Lord my God.
19 For after ^cI had turned away, I relented,
and after I was instructed, ^dI struck my thigh;
^eI was ashamed, and I was confounded,
because I bore the disgrace of my youth.’
20 ^fIs Ephraim my dear son?
^gIs he my darling child?
For as often as I speak against him,
I do remember him still.
^hTherefore my heart ^{▼▼Hebrew bowels} yearns for him;
I will surely have mercy on him,

declares the Lord.
