Hosea 8:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ Israel is swallowed up;
    now they are among the nations
    like something of no value.
⁹ For they have gone up to Assyria
    like a wild ass wandering on its own;
    Ephraim has bargained for lovers.
¹⁰ Because they have bargained with the nations,
    I will now gather them up.
They will soon begin to suffer
    under the weight of kings and princes.
