Hosea 9:15 CPDV

¹³  Ephraim, as I see it, was a Tyre, founded by beauty. And Ephraim will lead his sons to execution.

¹⁴  Give them, O Lord. What will you give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts.

¹⁵  All their wickedness is in Gilgal, for I held them there, in their hatred. Because of the malice of their inventions, I will expel them from my house. I will no longer say that I love them; all their leaders have retreated.

¹⁶  Ephraim has been struck; their root has been dried out: by no means will they yield fruit. And even if they should conceive, I will execute the most beloved of their womb.

¹⁷  My God will cast them aside because they have not listened to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
