But an empty man will become wise, when a wild donkey’s colt is born a human being.

Who let the wild donkey go free? Who released the bonds of the donkey,

“Does the wild donkey bray when it is near grass? Or does the ox low near its fodder?

They have gone up to Assyria, like a wild donkey that wanders off. Ephraim has hired prostitutes as lovers.

He will be a wild donkey of a man. He will be hostile to everyone, and everyone will be hostile to him. He will live away from his brothers.”
