Hosea 13:12-14
Lexham English Bible
12 The sin of Ephraim is wrapped up;
his sin is concealed.
13 The labor pains of childbirth come for him;
he is an unwise son
because at the proper time, he does not present himself
at the mouth of the womb.[a]
14 Should I redeem them from the power[b] of Sheol? [c]
Should I deliver them from death?
Where are your plagues, O Death?
Where is your destruction, O Sheol?[d]
Compassion is hidden from my eyes.
