Hosea 7:11-13

Modern English Version

¹¹ Ephraim is like a dove,
    silly and without sense;
they call to Egypt,
    they go to Assyria.
¹² Wherever they go, I will spread My net over them;
    I will bring them down like the birds of the sky;
I will discipline them according to
    the report to their congregation.
¹³ Woe to them,
    for they have fled from Me!
Destruction to them,
    for they have rebelled against Me!
Though I would redeem them,
    yet they speak lies against Me.
