Hosea 11:7

⁵  He shall not return into the land of Egypt, and the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return.

⁶  And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.

⁷  And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.

⁸  How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.

⁹  I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.
