6. For from Israel is even this: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
7. For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: the stalk has no bud: it shall yield no meal: if so be it does yield, the aliens shall swallow it up.
8. Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel in which is no pleasure.
9. For they have gone up to Assyria, a wild donkey alone by itself: Ephraim has hired lovers.
10. Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little because of the burden of the king of princes.
