HO-13:1 When Ephraim spake trembling, he exalted himself in
Israel; but when he offended in Baal, he died.
HO-13:2 And now they sin more and more, and have made them
molten images of their silver, [and] idols according to their
own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say
of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.
HO-13:3 Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the
early dew that passeth away, as the chaff [that] is driven with
the whirlwind out of the floor, and as the smoke out of the
chimney.
HO-13:4 Yet I [am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and
thou shalt know no god but me: for [there is] no saviour beside
me.
HO-13:5 I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great
drought.
HO-13:6 According to their pasture, so were they filled; they
were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they
forgotten me.
HO-13:7 Therefore I will be unto them as a lion: as a leopard by
the way will I observe [them]:
HO-13:8 I will meet them as a bear [that is] bereaved [of her
whelps], and will rend the caul of their heart, and there will I
devour them like a lion: the wild beast shall tear them.
HO-13:9 O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in me [is]
thine help.
HO-13:10 I will be thy king: where [is any other] that may save
thee in all thy cities? and thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give
me a king and princes?
HO-13:11 I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took [him] away
in my wrath.
HO-13:12 The iniquity of Ephraim [is] bound up; his sin [is] hid.
HO-13:13 The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him:
he [is] an unwise son; for he should not stay long in [the place
of] the breaking forth of children.
HO-13:14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will
redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave,
I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine
eyes.
HO-13:15 Though he be fruitful among [his] brethren, an east
wind shall come, the wind of the LORD shall come up from the
wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain
shall be dried up: he shall spoil the treasure of all pleasant
vessels.
HO-13:16 Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled
against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants
shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be
ripped up.
