Revised Standard Version
Hosea 13:12-14
Revised Standard Version
12 The iniquity of E′phraim is bound up,
his sin is kept in store.
13 The pangs of childbirth come for him,
but he is an unwise son;
for now he does not present himself
at the mouth of the womb.
14 Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol?
Shall I redeem them from Death?
O Death, where[a] are your plagues?
O Sheol, where[b] is your destruction?
Compassion is hid from my eyes.
