Hosea 5:14-15

New Catholic Bible

¹⁴ For I will be like a lion to Ephraim,
    like a young lion to the house of Judah.
I myself will maul them and depart;
    I will carry them off,
    and no one will be able to rescue them.
¹⁵ I shall go back to my dwelling place
    until they acknowledge their guilt
    and seek my presence.^[a]
In their affliction,
    they will beseech my favor.
