Hosea 5:14-15
The Message
14-15 “I’m a grizzly charging Ephraim,
a grizzly with cubs charging Judah.
I’ll rip them to pieces—yes, I will!
No one can stop me now.
I’ll drag them off.
No one can help them.
Then I’ll go back to where I came from
until they come to their senses.
When they finally hit rock bottom,
maybe they’ll come looking for me.”
Hosea 5:14-15
New International Version
14 For I will be like a lion(A) to Ephraim,
like a great lion to Judah.
I will tear them to pieces(B) and go away;
I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them.(C)
15 Then I will return to my lair(D)
until they have borne their guilt(E)
and seek my face(F)—
in their misery(G)
they will earnestly seek me.(H)”
