Hosea 13:9

Israel’s King Unable to Deliver the Nation

13:9 I will destroy you, O Israel!

Who is there to help you?

Hosea 9:9

The Best of Times, the Worst of Times

9:9 They have sunk deep into corruption

as in the days of Gibeah.

He will remember their wrongdoing.

He will repay them for their sins.

Hosea 11:9

11:9 I cannot carry out my fierce anger!

I cannot totally destroy Ephraim!

Because I am God, and not man – the Holy One among you –

I will not come in wrath!
