Hosea 9:10-12

English Standard Version

¹⁰ Like grapes in the wilderness,
    ^(A)I found Israel.
Like the first fruit on the fig tree
    in its first season,
    I saw your fathers.
But ^(B)they came to Baal-peor
    and ^(C)consecrated themselves to the thing of shame,
    and ^(D)became detestable like the thing they loved.
¹¹ Ephraim's ^(E)glory shall fly away like a bird—
    ^(F)no birth, no pregnancy, no conception!
^12 (G)Even if they bring up children,
    I will bereave them till none is left.
^(H)Woe to them
    when ^(I)I depart from them!
