Hosea 10:11-13
International Children’s Bible
11 Israel is like a well-trained young cow
that likes to thresh grain.
But I will put a yoke on her neck.
I will make Israel work hard in the field.
Judah will plow.
Israel will break up the ground.
12 I said, ‘Break new ground.
Plant what is right.
Then you will harvest good things
from your loyalty to me.
It is time for you to turn back to me, the Lord.
Do it until I come and pour out my goodness on you.’
13 But you have planted evil.
So you have harvested trouble.
You have trusted in your own power
and your many soldiers.
Now you must live with the result of your lies.

Hosea 10:11-13
New International Version
11 Ephraim is a trained heifer
that loves to thresh;
so I will put a yoke(A)
on her fair neck.
I will drive Ephraim,
Judah must plow,
and Jacob must break up the ground.
12 Sow(B) righteousness(C) for yourselves,
reap the fruit of unfailing love,
and break up your unplowed ground;(D)
for it is time to seek(E) the Lord,
until he comes
and showers his righteousness(F) on you.
13 But you have planted wickedness,
you have reaped evil,(G)
you have eaten the fruit of deception.(H)
Because you have depended on your own strength
and on your many warriors,(I)
