Hosea 6:1--11:11

6:1

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us return
<07725> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

for he hath torn
<02963> (8804)_,

and he will heal
<07495> (8799)

us; he hath smitten
<05221> (8686)_,

and he will bind us up
<02280> (8799)_.

6:2

After two days
<03117>

will he revive
<02421> (8762)

us: in the third
<07992>

day
<03117>

he will raise us up
<06965> (8686)_,

and we shall live
<02421> (8799)

in his sight
<06440>_.

6:3

Then shall we know
<03045> (8799)_,

[if] we follow
<07291> (8799)

on to know
<03045> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_:

his going forth
<04161>

is prepared
<03559> (8737)

as the morning
<07837>_;

and he shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto us as the rain
<01653>_,

as the latter
<04456>

[and] former rain
<03384> (8802)

unto the earth
<0776>_.

6:4

O Ephraim
<0669>_,

what shall I do
<06213> (8799)

unto thee? O Judah
<03063>_,

what shall I do
<06213> (8799)

unto thee? for your goodness
<02617>

[is] as a morning
<01242>

cloud
<06051>_,

and as the early
<07925> (8688)

dew
<02919>

it goeth away
<01980> (8802)_.

{goodness: or, mercy, or, kindness}

6:5

Therefore have I hewed
<02672> (8804)

[them] by the prophets
<05030>_;

I have slain
<02026> (8804)

them by the words
<0561>

of my mouth
<06310>_:

and thy judgments
<04941>

[are as] the light
<0216>

[that] goeth forth
<03318> (8799)_.

{and...: or, that thy judgments might be, etc}

6:6

For I desired
<02654> (8804)

mercy
<02617>_,

and not sacrifice
<02077>_;

and the knowledge
<01847>

of God
<0430>

more than burnt offerings
<05930>_.

6:7

But they like men
<0120>

have transgressed
<05674> (8804)

the covenant
<01285>_:

there have they dealt treacherously
<0898> (8804)

against me. {men: or, Adam}

6:8

Gilead
<01568>

[is] a city
<07151>

of them that work
<06466> (8802)

iniquity
<0205>_,

[and is] polluted
<06121>

with blood
<01818>_.

{polluted: or, cunning for}

6:9

And as troops
<01416>

of robbers wait
<02442> (8763)

for a man
<0376>_,

[so] the company
<02267>

of priests
<03548>

murder
<07523> (8762)

in the way
<01870>

by consent
<07926> (8677) <07927>_:

for they commit
<06213> (8804)

lewdness
<02154>_.

{by...: Heb. with one shoulder, or, to Shechem} {lewdness: or, enormity}

6:10

I have seen
<07200> (8804)

an horrible thing
<08186>

in the house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_:

there [is] the whoredom
<02184>

of Ephraim
<0669>_,

Israel
<03478>

is defiled
<02930> (8738)_.

6:11

Also, O Judah
<03063>_,

he hath set
<07896> (8804)

an harvest
<07105>

for thee, when I returned
<07725> (8800)

the captivity
<07622>

of my people
<05971>_.

7:1

When I would have healed
<07495> (8800)

Israel
<03478>_,

then the iniquity
<05771>

of Ephraim
<0669>

was discovered
<01540> (8738)_,

and the wickedness
<07451>

of Samaria
<08111>_:

for they commit
<06466> (8804)

falsehood
<08267>_;

and the thief
<01590>

cometh in
<0935> (8799)_,

[and] the troop
<01416>

of robbers spoileth
<06584> (8804)

without
<02351>_.

{wickedness: Heb. evils} {spoileth: Heb. strippeth}

7:2

And they consider
<0559> (8799)

not in their hearts
<03824>

[that] I remember
<02142> (8804)

all their wickedness
<07451>_:

now their own doings
<04611>

have beset them about
<05437> (8804)_;

they are before my face
<06440>_.

{consider...: Heb. say not to}

7:3

They make the king
<04428>

glad
<08055> (8762)

with their wickedness
<07451>_,

and the princes
<08269>

with their lies
<03585>_.

7:4

They [are] all adulterers
<05003> (8764)_,

as an oven
<08574>

heated
<01197> (8802)

by the baker
<0644> (8802)_,

[who] ceaseth
<07673> (8799)

from raising
<05782> (8800)

after he hath kneaded
<03888> (8800)

the dough
<01217>_,

until it be leavened
<02556> (8800)_.

{who...: or, the raiser will cease} {raising: or, waking}

7:5

In the day
<03117>

of our king
<04428>

the princes
<08269>

have made [him] sick
<02470> (8689)

with bottles
<02534>

of wine
<03196>_;

he stretched out
<04900> (8804)

his hand
<03027>

with scorners
<03945> (8802)_.

{bottles...: or, heat through wine}

7:6

For they have made ready
<07126> (8765)

their heart
<03820>

like an oven
<08574>_,

whiles they lie in wait
<0693> (8800)_:

their baker
<0644> (8802)

sleepeth
<03463>

all the night
<03915>_;

in the morning
<01242>

it burneth
<01197> (8802)

as a flaming
<03852>

fire
<0784>_.

{made...: or, applied}

7:7

They are all hot
<02552> (8735)

as an oven
<08574>_,

and have devoured
<0398> (8804)

their judges
<08199> (8802)_;

all their kings
<04428>

are fallen
<05307> (8804)_:

[there is] none among them that calleth
<07121> (8802)

unto me.

7:8

Ephraim
<0669>_,

he hath mixed
<01101> (8704)

himself among the people
<05971>_;

Ephraim
<0669>

is a cake
<05692>

not turned
<02015> (8803)_.

7:9

Strangers
<02114> (8801)

have devoured
<0398> (8804)

his strength
<03581>_,

and he knoweth
<03045> (8804)

[it] not: yea, gray hairs
<07872>

are here and there
<02236> (8804)

upon him, yet he knoweth
<03045> (8804)

not. {here...: Heb. sprinkled}

7:10

And the pride
<01347>

of Israel
<03478>

testifieth
<06030> (8804)

to his face
<06440>_:

and they do not return
<07725> (8804)

to the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>_,

nor seek
<01245> (8765)

him for all this.

7:11

Ephraim
<0669>

also is like a silly
<06601> (8802)

dove
<03123>

without heart
<03820>_:

they call
<07121> (8804)

to Egypt
<04714>_,

they go
<01980> (8804)

to Assyria
<0804>_.

7:12

When they shall go
<03212> (8799)_,

I will spread
<06566> (8799)

my net
<07568>

upon them; I will bring them down
<03381> (8686)

as the fowls
<05775>

of the heaven
<08064>_;

I will chastise
<03256> (8686)

them, as their congregation
<05712>

hath heard
<08088>_.

7:13

Woe
<0188>

unto them! for they have fled
<05074> (8804)

from me: destruction
<07701>

unto them! because they have transgressed
<06586> (8804)

against me: though I have redeemed
<06299> (8799)

them, yet they have spoken
<01696> (8765)

lies
<03577>

against me. {destruction: Heb. spoil}

7:14

And they have not cried
<02199> (8804)

unto me with their heart
<03820>_,

when they howled
<03213> (8686)

upon their beds
<04904>_:

they assemble
<01481> (8709)

themselves for corn
<01715>

and wine
<08492>_,

[and] they rebel
<05493> (8799)

against me.

7:15

Though I have bound
<03256> (8765)

[and] strengthened
<02388> (8765)

their arms
<02220>_,

yet do they imagine
<02803> (8762)

mischief
<07451>

against me. {have...: or, chastened}

7:16

They return
<07725> (8799)_,

[but] not to the most High
<05920>_:

they are like a deceitful
<07423>

bow
<07198>_:

their princes
<08269>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>

for the rage
<02195>

of their tongue
<03956>_:

this
<02097>

[shall be] their derision
<03933>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

8:1

[Set] the trumpet
<07782>

to thy mouth
<02441>_.

[He shall come] as an eagle
<05404>

against the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

because they have transgressed
<05674> (8804)

my covenant
<01285>_,

and trespassed
<06586> (8804)

against my law
<08451>_.

{thy: Heb. the roof of thy}

8:2

Israel
<03478>

shall cry
<02199> (8799)

unto me, My God
<0430>_,

we know
<03045> (8804)

thee.

8:3

Israel
<03478>

hath cast off
<02186> (8804)

[the thing that is] good
<02896>_:

the enemy
<0341> (8802)

shall pursue
<07291> (8799)

him.

8:4

They have set up kings
<04427> (8689)_,

but not by me: they have made princes
<07786> (8689)_,

and I knew
<03045> (8804)

[it] not: of their silver
<03701>

and their gold
<02091>

have they made
<06213> (8804)

them idols
<06091>_,

that they may be cut off
<03772> (8735)_.

8:5

Thy calf
<05695>_,

O Samaria
<08111>_,

hath cast
<02186> (8804)

[thee] off; mine anger
<0639>

is kindled
<02734> (8804)

against them: how long [will it be] ere
<03808>

they attain
<03201> (8799)

to innocency
<05356>_?

8:6

For from Israel
<03478>

[was] it also: the workman
<02796>

made
<06213> (8804)

it; therefore it [is] not God
<0430>_:

but the calf
<05695>

of Samaria
<08111>

shall be broken in pieces
<07616>_.

8:7

For they have sown
<02232> (8799)

the wind
<07307>_,

and they shall reap
<07114> (8799)

the whirlwind
<05492>_:

it hath no stalk
<07054>_:

the bud
<06780>

shall yield
<06213> (8799)

no meal
<07058>_:

if
<0194>

so be it yield
<06213> (8799)_,

the strangers
<02114> (8801)

shall swallow it up
<01104> (8799)_.

{stalk: or, standing corn}

8:8

Israel
<03478>

is swallowed up
<01104> (8738)_:

now shall they be among the Gentiles
<01471>

as a vessel
<03627>

wherein [is] no pleasure
<02656>_.

8:9

For they are gone up
<05927> (8804)

to Assyria
<0804>_,

a wild ass
<06501>

alone
<0909> (8802)

by himself: Ephraim
<0669>

hath hired
<08566> (8689)

lovers
<0158>_.

{lovers: Heb. loves}

8:10

Yea, though they have hired
<08566> (8799)

among the nations
<01471>_,

now will I gather
<06908> (8762)

them, and they shall sorrow
<02490> (8686)

a little
<04592>

for the burden
<04853>

of the king
<04428>

of princes
<08269>_.

{sorrow: or, begin} {a...: or, in a little while}

8:11

Because Ephraim
<0669>

hath made many
<07235> (8689)

altars
<04196>

to sin
<02398> (8800)_,

altars
<04196>

shall be unto him to sin
<02398> (8800)_.

8:12

I have written
<03789> (8799)

to him the great things
<07230> (8675) <07239>

of my law
<08451>_,

[but] they were counted
<02803> (8738)

as a strange thing
<02114> (8801)_.

8:13

They sacrifice
<02076> (8799)

flesh
<01320>

[for] the sacrifices
<02077>

of mine offerings
<01890>_,

and eat
<0398> (8799)

[it; but] the LORD
<03068>

accepteth
<07521> (8804)

them not; now will he remember
<02142> (8799)

their iniquity
<05771>_,

and visit
<06485> (8799)

their sins
<02403>_:

they shall return
<07725> (8799)

to Egypt
<04714>_.

{They sacrifice...: or, In the sacrifices of mine offerings they, etc}

8:14

For Israel
<03478>

hath forgotten
<07911> (8799)

his Maker
<06213> (8802)_,

and buildeth
<01129> (8799)

temples
<01964>_;

and Judah
<03063>

hath multiplied
<07235> (8689)

fenced
<01219> (8803)

cities
<05892>_:

but I will send
<07971> (8765)

a fire
<0784>

upon his cities
<05892>_,

and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

thereof.

9:1

Rejoice
<08055> (8799)

not, O Israel
<03478>_,

for joy
<01524>_,

as [other] people
<05971>_:

for thou hast gone a whoring
<02181> (8804)

from thy God
<0430>_,

thou hast loved
<0157> (8804)

a reward
<0868>

upon every cornfloor
<01637> <01715>_.

{upon: or, in, etc}

9:2

The floor
<01637>

and the winepress
<03342>

shall not feed
<07462> (8799)

them, and the new wine
<08492>

shall fail
<03584> (8762)

in her. {winepress: or, winefat}

9:3

They shall not dwell
<03427> (8799)

in the LORD'S
<03068>

land
<0776>_;

but Ephraim
<0669>

shall return
<07725> (8804)

to Egypt
<04714>_,

and they shall eat
<0398> (8799)

unclean
<02931>

[things] in Assyria
<0804>_.

9:4

They shall not offer
<05258> (8799)

wine
<03196>

[offerings] to the LORD
<03068>_,

neither shall they be pleasing
<06149> (8799)

unto him: their sacrifices
<02077>

[shall be] unto them as the bread
<03899>

of mourners
<0205>_;

all that eat
<0398> (8802)

thereof shall be polluted
<02930> (8691)_:

for their bread
<03899>

for their soul
<05315>

shall not come
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

9:5

What will ye do
<06213> (8799)

in the solemn
<04150>

day
<03117>_,

and in the day
<03117>

of the feast
<02282>

of the LORD
<03068>_?

9:6

For, lo, they are gone
<01980> (8804)

because of destruction
<07701>_:

Egypt
<04714>

shall gather them up
<06908> (8762)_,

Memphis
<04644>

shall bury
<06912> (8762)

them: the pleasant
<04261>

[places] for their silver
<03701>_,

nettles
<07057>

shall possess
<03423> (8799)

them: thorns
<02336>

[shall be] in their tabernacles
<0168>_.

{destruction: Heb. spoil} {the...: or, their silver shall be desired, the nettle, etc.: Heb. the desire}

9:7

The days
<03117>

of visitation
<06486>

are come
<0935> (8804)_,

the days
<03117>

of recompence
<07966>

are come
<0935> (8804)_;

Israel
<03478>

shall know
<03045> (8799)

[it]: the prophet
<05030>

[is] a fool
<0191>_,

the spiritual
<07307>

man
<0376>

[is] mad
<07696> (8794)_,

for the multitude
<07230>

of thine iniquity
<05771>_,

and the great
<07227>

hatred
<04895>_.

{spiritual...: Heb. man of the spirit}

9:8

The watchman
<06822> (8802)

of Ephraim
<0669>

[was] with my God
<0430>_:

[but] the prophet
<05030>

[is] a snare
<06341>

of a fowler
<03352>

in all his ways
<01870>_,

[and] hatred
<04895>

in the house
<01004>

of his God
<0430>_.

{in the: or, against the}

9:9

They have deeply
<06009> (8689)

corrupted
<07843> (8765)

[themselves], as in the days
<03117>

of Gibeah
<01390>_:

[therefore] he will remember
<02142> (8799)

their iniquity
<05771>_,

he will visit
<06485> (8799)

their sins
<02403>_.

9:10

I found
<04672> (8804)

Israel
<03478>

like grapes
<06025>

in the wilderness
<04057>_;

I saw
<07200> (8804)

your fathers
<01>

as the firstripe
<01063>

in the fig tree
<08384>

at her first time
<07225>_:

[but] they went
<0935> (8804)

to Baalpeor
<01187>_,

and separated
<05144> (8735)

themselves unto [that] shame
<01322>_;

and [their] abominations
<08251>

were according as they loved
<0157> (8800)_.

9:11

[As for] Ephraim
<0669>_,

their glory
<03519>

shall fly away
<05774> (8709)

like a bird
<05775>_,

from the birth
<03205> (8800)_,

and from the womb
<0990>_,

and from the conception
<02032>_.

9:12

Though they bring up
<01431> (8762)

their children
<01121>_,

yet will I bereave
<07921> (8765)

them, [that there shall] not [be] a man
<0120>

[left]: yea, woe
<0188>

also to them when I depart
<05493> (8800)

from them!

9:13

Ephraim
<0669>_,

as I saw
<07200> (8804)

Tyrus
<06865>_,

[is] planted
<08362> (8803)

in a pleasant place
<05116>_:

but Ephraim
<0669>

shall bring forth
<03318> (8687)

his children
<01121>

to the murderer
<02026> (8802)_.

9:14

Give
<05414> (8798)

them, O LORD
<03068>_:

what wilt thou give
<05414> (8799)_?

give
<05414> (8798)

them a miscarrying
<07921> (8688)

womb
<07358>

and dry
<06784> (8802)

breasts
<07699>_.

{miscarrying: Heb. that casteth the fruit}

9:15

All their wickedness
<07451>

[is] in Gilgal
<01537>_:

for there I hated
<08130> (8804)

them: for the wickedness
<07455>

of their doings
<04611>

I will drive them out
<01644> (8762)

of mine house
<01004>_,

I will love
<0160>

them no more
<03254> (8686)_:

all their princes
<08269>

[are] revolters
<05637> (8802)_.

9:16

Ephraim
<0669>

is smitten
<05221> (8717)_,

their root
<08328>

is dried up
<03001> (8804)_,

they shall bear
<06213> (8799)

no fruit
<06529>_:

yea, though they bring forth
<03205> (8799)_,

yet will I slay
<04191> (8689)

[even] the beloved
<04261>

[fruit] of their womb
<0990>_.

{the...: Heb. the desires}

9:17

My God
<0430>

will cast them away
<03988> (8799)_,

because they did not hearken
<08085> (8804)

unto him: and they shall be wanderers
<05074> (8802)

among the nations
<01471>_.

10:1

Israel
<03478>

[is] an empty
<01238> (8802)

vine
<01612>_,

he bringeth forth
<07737> (8762)

fruit
<06529>

unto himself: according to the multitude
<07230>

of his fruit
<06529>

he hath increased
<07235> (8689)

the altars
<04196>_;

according to the goodness
<02896>

of his land
<0776>

they have made goodly
<02895> (8689)

images
<04676>_.

{an...: or, a vine emptying the fruit which it giveth} {images: Heb. statues, or, standing images}

10:2

Their heart
<03820>

is divided
<02505> (8804)_;

now shall they be found faulty
<0816> (8799)_:

he shall break down
<06202> (8799)

their altars
<04196>_,

he shall spoil
<07703> (8779)

their images
<04676>_.

{Their heart...: or, He hath divided their heart} {break...: Heb. behead} {images: Heb. statues, or, standing images}

10:3

For now they shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

We have no king
<04428>_,

because we feared
<03372> (8804)

not the LORD
<03068>_;

what then should a king
<04428>

do
<06213> (8799)

to us?

10:4

They have spoken
<01696> (8765)

words
<01697>_,

swearing
<0422> (8800)

falsely
<07723>

in making
<03772> (8800)

a covenant
<01285>_:

thus judgment
<04941>

springeth up
<06524> (8804)

as hemlock
<07219>

in the furrows
<08525>

of the field
<07704>_.

10:5

The inhabitants
<07934>

of Samaria
<08111>

shall fear
<01481> (8799)

because of the calves
<05697>

of Bethaven
<01007>_:

for the people
<05971>

thereof shall mourn
<056> (8804)

over it, and the priests
<03649>

thereof [that] rejoiced
<01523> (8799)

on it, for the glory
<03519>

thereof, because it is departed
<01540> (8804)

from it. {the priests...: or, Chemarim}

10:6

It shall be also carried
<02986> (8714)

unto Assyria
<0804>

[for] a present
<04503>

to king
<04428>

Jareb
<03377>_:

Ephraim
<0669>

shall receive
<03947> (8799)

shame
<01317>_,

and Israel
<03478>

shall be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

of his own counsel
<06098>_.

10:7

[As for] Samaria
<08111>_,

her king
<04428>

is cut off
<01820> (8738)

as the foam
<07110>

upon
<06440>

the water
<04325>_.

{the water: Heb. the face of the water}

10:8

The high places
<01116>

also of Aven
<0206>_,

the sin
<02403>

of Israel
<03478>_,

shall be destroyed
<08045> (8738)_:

the thorn
<06975>

and the thistle
<01863>

shall come up
<05927> (8799)

on their altars
<04196>_;

and they shall say
<0559> (8804)

to the mountains
<02022>_,

Cover
<03680> (8761)

us; and to the hills
<01389>_,

Fall
<05307> (8798)

on us.

10:9

O Israel
<03478>_,

thou hast sinned
<02398> (8804)

from the days
<03117>

of Gibeah
<01390>_:

there they stood
<05975> (8804)_:

the battle
<04421>

in Gibeah
<01390>

against the children
<01121>

of iniquity
<05932>

did not overtake
<05381> (8686)

them.

10:10

[It is] in my desire
<0185>

that I should chastise
<03256> (8799)

them; and the people
<05971>

shall be gathered
<0622> (8795)

against them, when they shall bind
<0631> (8800)

themselves in their two
<08147>

furrows
<05869>_.

{when...: or, when I shall bind them for their two transgressions, or, in their two habitations}

10:11

And Ephraim
<0669>

[is as] an heifer
<05697>

[that is] taught
<03925> (8794)_,

[and] loveth
<0157> (8802)

to tread out
<01758> (8800)

[the corn]; but I passed over
<05674> (8804)

upon her fair
<02898>

neck
<06677>_:

I will make Ephraim
<0669>

to ride
<07392> (8686)_;

Judah
<03063>

shall plow
<02790> (8799)_,

[and] Jacob
<03290>

shall break his clods
<07702> (8762)_.

{her...: Heb. the beauty of her neck}

10:12

Sow
<02232> (8798)

to yourselves in righteousness
<06666>_,

reap
<07114> (8798)

in
<06310>

mercy
<02617>_;

break up
<05214> (8798)

your fallow ground
<05215>_:

for [it is] time
<06256>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_,

till he come
<0935> (8799)

and rain
<03384> (8686)

righteousness
<06664>

upon you.

10:13

Ye have plowed
<02790> (8804)

wickedness
<07562>_,

ye have reaped
<07114> (8804)

iniquity
<05766>_;

ye have eaten
<0398> (8804)

the fruit
<06529>

of lies
<03585>_:

because thou didst trust
<0982> (8804)

in thy way
<01870>_,

in the multitude
<07230>

of thy mighty men
<01368>_.

10:14

Therefore shall a tumult
<07588>

arise
<06965> (8804)

among thy people
<05971>_,

and all thy fortresses
<04013>

shall be spoiled
<07703> (8714)_,

as Shalman
<08020>

spoiled
<07701>

Betharbel
<01009>

in the day
<03117>

of battle
<04421>_:

the mother
<0517>

was dashed in pieces
<07376> (8795)

upon [her] children
<01121>_.

10:15

So
<03602>

shall Bethel
<01008>

do
<06213> (8804)

unto you because
<06440>

of your great
<07451>

wickedness
<07451>_:

in a morning
<07837>

shall the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

utterly
<01820> (8736)

be cut off
<01820> (8738)_.

{your...: Heb. the evil of your evil}

11:1

When Israel
<03478>

[was] a child
<05288>_,

then I loved
<0157> (8799)

him, and called
<07121> (8804)

my son
<01121>

out of Egypt
<04714>_.

11:2

[As] they called
<07121> (8804)

them, so they went
<01980> (8804)

from them
<06440>_:

they sacrificed
<02076> (8762)

unto Baalim
<01168>_,

and burned incense
<06999> (8762)

to graven images
<06456>_.

11:3

I taught
<08637> (0)

Ephraim
<0669>

also to go
<08637> (8809)_,

taking
<03947> (8800)

them by their arms
<02220>_;

but they knew
<03045> (8804)

not that I healed
<07495> (8804)

them.

11:4

I drew
<04900> (8799)

them with cords
<02256>

of a man
<0120>_,

with bands
<05688>

of love
<0160>_:

and I was to them as they that take off
<07311> (8688)

the yoke
<05923>

on their jaws
<03895>_,

and I laid
<05186> (8686)

meat
<0398> (8686)

unto them. {take off: Heb. lift up}

11:5

He shall not return
<07725> (8799)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

but the Assyrian
<0804>

shall be his king
<04428>_,

because they refused
<03985> (8765)

to return
<07725> (8800)_.

11:6

And the sword
<02719>

shall abide
<02342> (8804)

on his cities
<05892>_,

and shall consume
<03615> (8765)

his branches
<0905>_,

and devour
<0398> (8804)

[them], because of their own counsels
<04156>_.

11:7

And my people
<05971>

are bent
<08511> (8803)

to backsliding
<04878>

from me: though they called
<07121> (8799)

them to the most High
<05920>_,

none at all
<03162>

would exalt
<07311> (8787)

[him]. {none...: Heb. together they exalted not}

11:8

How shall I give thee up
<05414> (8799)_,

Ephraim
<0669>_?

[how] shall I deliver
<04042> (8762)

thee, Israel
<03478>_?

how shall I make
<05414> (8799)

thee as Admah
<0126>_?

[how] shall I set
<07760> (8799)

thee as Zeboim
<06636>_?

mine heart
<03820>

is turned
<02015> (8738)

within me, my repentings
<05150>

are kindled
<03648> (8738)

together
<03162>_.

11:9

I will not execute
<06213> (8799)

the fierceness
<02740>

of mine anger
<0639>_,

I will not return
<07725> (8799)

to destroy
<07843> (8763)

Ephraim
<0669>_:

for I [am] God
<0410>_,

and not man
<0376>_;

the Holy One
<06918>

in the midst
<07130>

of thee: and I will not enter
<0935> (8799)

into the city
<05892>_.

11:10

They shall walk
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

the LORD
<03068>_:

he shall roar
<07580> (8799)

like a lion
<0738>_:

when he shall roar
<07580> (8799)_,

then the children
<01121>

shall tremble
<02729> (8799)

from the west
<03220>_.

11:11

They shall tremble
<02729> (8799)

as a bird
<06833>

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

and as a dove
<03123>

out of the land
<0776>

of Assyria
<0804>_:

and I will place
<03427> (8689)

them in their houses
<01004>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.
