(A)How can I give you up, O Ephraim?
How can I surrender you, O Israel?
How can I [a]make you like (B)Admah?
How can I treat you like (C)Zeboiim?
My heart is turned over within Me,
[b]All My compassions are kindled.
I will (D)not execute My fierce anger;
I will not destroy Ephraim (E)again.
For (F)I am God and not man, the (G)Holy One in your midst,
And I will not come in [c]wrath.
10 They will (H)walk after the Lord,
He will (I)roar like a lion;
Indeed He will roar
And His sons will come (J)trembling from the west.
