Hosea 13:11-13
New Catholic Bible
11 I gave you a king in my anger,
and in my wrath I took him away.[a]
O Death, Where Are Your Plagues?
12 The guilt of Ephraim is stored up;
his sins are kept on record.
13 He experiences the pangs of childbirth,
but he is a child lacking in wisdom.
When his time for birth arrives,
he does not leave the womb.
