Hosea 9

11 Ref Ephraim `is' as a fowl, Fly away doth their honour, without birth, And without womb, and without conception.

12 Ref For though they nourish their sons, I have made them childless -- without man, Surely also, wo to them, when I turn aside from them.

13 Ref Ephraim! when I have looked to the rock, Is planted in comeliness, And Ephraim `is' to bring out unto a slayer his sons.

14 Ref Give to them, Jehovah -- what dost Thou give? Give to them miscarrying womb, and dry breasts.

15 Ref All their evil `is' in Gilgal, Surely there I have hated them, Because of the evil of their doings, Out of My house I do drive them, I add not to love them, all their heads `are' apostates.

16 Ref Ephraim hath been smitten, Their root hath dried up, fruit they yield not, Yea, though they bring forth, I have put to death the desired of their womb.

17 Ref Reject them doth my God, Because they have not hearkened to Him, And they are wanderers among nations!
