Hosea 5:13-15
New International Version
13 “When Ephraim(A) saw his sickness,
and Judah his sores,
then Ephraim turned to Assyria,(B)
and sent to the great king for help.(C)
But he is not able to cure(D) you,
not able to heal your sores.(E)
14 For I will be like a lion(F) to Ephraim,
like a great lion to Judah.
I will tear them to pieces(G) and go away;
I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them.(H)
15 Then I will return to my lair(I)
until they have borne their guilt(J)
and seek my face(K)—
in their misery(L)
they will earnestly seek me.(M)”
