Hosea 9:11-13

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹¹ “Ephraim’s glory will fly away like a bird.
There will be no more pregnancies, births, or babies.
¹² Even if they bring up children,
I will take those children away before they grow up.
Yes, how horrible it will be for them when I leave them.
¹³ I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place.
But the people of Ephraim will bring out their children
to be killed.”
