10. As grapes in a wilderness I found Israel, As the first-fruit in a fig-tree, at its beginning, I have seen your fathers, They--they have gone in [to] Baal-Peor, And are separated to a shameful thing, And are become abominable like their love.
11. Ephraim [is] as a fowl, Fly away doth their honour, without birth, And without womb, and without conception.
12. For though they nourish their sons, I have made them childless--without man, Surely also, woe to them, when I turn aside from them.
