11. Oppressed is Ephraim, broken in judgment, When he pleased he went after the command.
12. And I [am] as a moth to Ephraim, And as a rotten thing to the house of Judah.
13. And see doth Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, And Ephraim goeth unto Asshur, And sendeth unto a warlike king, And he is not able to give healing to you, Nor doth he remove from you a scar.
14. For I [am] as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah, I--I tear and go, I bear away, and there is no deliverer.
15. I go--I turn back unto My place, Till that they are desolate, and have sought My face. In their distress they do seek Me speedily!'
