14 I will be like a lion to ·Israel [L Ephraim; 4:17],
    like a young lion to ·Judah [L the house of Judah].
·I will attack them
    and tear them to pieces [L I, even I, will tear them and go away].
I will drag them off,
    and no one will be able to ·save [rescue] them.
15 Then I will go back to my ·place [lair; dwelling place]
    until they ·suffer for [or admit] their guilt and ·turn back to me [L seek my face].
In their ·trouble [distress; affliction] they will look for me.”

14 For I will be like a lion(A) to Ephraim,
    like a great lion to Judah.

    I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them.(C)

    until they have borne their guilt(E)
    and seek my face(F)
in their misery(G)
    they will earnestly seek me.(H)
