Hosea 11:6-8

Amplified Bible

⁶ 
The sword will whirl against and fall on their cities,
And will demolish the bars of their gates and fortifications
And will consume them because of their counsels.
⁷ 
My people are bent on turning from Me;
Though the prophets call them to the One on high,
None at all exalts Him.

⁸ 
How can I give you up, O Ephraim?
How can I surrender you, O Israel?
How can I make you like Admah?
How can I treat you like ^[a]Zeboiim?
My heart recoils within Me;
All My compassions are kindled together [for My nation of Israel].^(A)
