Hosea 11:6-8
Revised Standard Version
6 The sword shall rage against their cities,
consume the bars of their gates,
and devour them in their fortresses.[a]
7 My people are bent on turning away from me;[b]
so they are appointed to the yoke,
and none shall remove it.
8 How can I give you up, O E′phraim!
How can I hand you over, O Israel!
How can I make you like Admah!
How can I treat you like Zeboi′im!
My heart recoils within me,
my compassion grows warm and tender.
