6 The sword has begun in his cities, and it will consume his elect and devour their heads.
7 And my people will long for my return. But a yoke will be imposed on them together, which will not be taken away.
8 How will I provide for you, Ephraim; how will I protect you, Israel? How will I provide for you as for Adam; will I set you like Zeboiim? My heart has changed within me; together with my regret, it has been stirred up.
9 I will not act on the fury of my wrath. I will not turn back to utterly destroy Ephraim. For I am God, and not man, the Divine in your midst, and I will not advance upon the city.
10 They will walk after the Lord; he will roar like a lion. For he himself will roar, and the sons of the sea will dread.
