Hosea 7:11-13
International Standard Version
11 “Ephraim is also like a silly dove,
lacking sense:[a]
They call out to Egypt,
and turn toward Assyria.
12 When they go,
I’ll cast my net over them.
I’ll bring them down, as one shoots[b] birds in the sky.
I’ll chasten them,
as the assembly has already heard.
13 Woe to them—
because they have run away from me.
Ruin to them—
because they have sinned against me.
Even though I redeemed them,
they spread lies against me.

New International Version
11 “Ephraim is like a dove,(A)
easily deceived and senseless—
now calling to Egypt,(B)
now turning to Assyria.(C)
12 When they go, I will throw my net(D) over them;
I will pull them down like the birds in the sky.
When I hear them flocking together,
I will catch them.
13 Woe(E) to them,
because they have strayed(F) from me!
Destruction to them,
because they have rebelled against me!
I long to redeem them
but they speak about me(G) falsely.(H)
