¹² The Lord, the Lord Almighty,
    called you on that day^(A)
to weep^(B) and to wail,
    to tear out your hair^(C) and put on sackcloth.^(D)

⁹ They will come with weeping;^(A)
    they will pray as I bring them back.
I will lead^(B) them beside streams of water^(C)
    on a level^(D) path where they will not stumble,
because I am Israel’s father,^(E)
    and Ephraim is my firstborn son.

¹⁶ The fugitives^(A) who escape
    will flee to the mountains.
Like doves^(B) of the valleys,
    they will all moan,
    each for their own sins.^(C)
