RF HOS 13:1 Ephraim once was great;—and why he became little.
When Ephraim had spoken they trembled,
He was so high placed in Israel!
But he died—for his guilt about Baal!
RF HOS 13:2 Yet still they continue to sin,
And make themselves Idols!
Of fanciful silver made forms,—
Ideas put in shape by a blacksmith!
All who sacrifice men to the calves,
RF HOS 13:3 They order to kiss them!
So they shall be like the clouds at the dawn,
And like morning dew they shall vanish;
Like chaff a storm sweeps from a barn,
And smoke that comes out from a chimney!
RF HOS 13:4 But I am the Jehovah your God,
Who brought from the country of Mitzer:
You should know no God except Me,—
And except Me, there can be no Saviour!
RF HOS 13:5 I acknowledged you when in the Desert,
In the land that possesses no water.—
RF HOS 13:6 There, they were full pastured and gorged,
But their heart then rebelled and forgot me!
RF HOS 13:7 So, I am a lion, a leopard,
To them on the journey to Ashur!
RF HOS 13:8 I will seize like a fierce raging bear;
Who tears when bereaved of her young ones.
And rip up the cage of their heart!
The wild beasts of the field shall devour them!
RF HOS 13:9 Israel, you are a wreck! And it is only I that can help you!
RF HOS 13:10 Where now is your King? Let him come,
And help you in all of your Cities!
And your Judges?—Against whom you said
Give me a king and his princes?
RF HOS 13:11 In My anger I gave you a King!—
But I took him away in My fury!—
RF HOS 13:12 Ephraim's sin is packed up!
He hoards up his faults as his treasure!
RF HOS 13:13 To him came the troubles of childbirth;
To him as lad without sense,
Not expecting the birth of his children;
RF HOS 13:14 Shall I free from the hand of the Grave,
Or shall I redeem you from Death?
Where are your terrors O! Death?
And where now O! Grave, your destruction?
Pity is hid from My eyesight;—
RF HOS 13:15 Tho' he flourish in beautiful meads,
An easterly wind shall arrive,
A wind of the Lord, from the desert,
And his spring shall be dry, and his fountain shall fail,
And his store shall be robbed of all beautiful products!
RF HOS 13:16 And Shomeron will be repaid,
Because it rebelled against God!
Her children shall fall by the sword,
And her pregnant be crushed, and be ripped up!
