10 They will follow the Lord;(A)
he will roar like a lion.(B)
When he roars,
his children will come trembling from the west.(C)
11 They will be roused like birds from Egypt
and like doves(D) from the land of Assyria.(E)
Then I will settle them in their homes.(F)

This is the Lord’s declaration.

12 Ephraim surrounds me with lies,(G)
the house of Israel, with deceit.
Judah still wanders with God
and is faithful to the holy ones.[a]

And His sons will come (C)trembling from the west.
11 They will come trembling like birds from (D)Egypt,
And like (E)doves from the land of (F)Assyria;
And I will (G)settle them in their houses, declares the Lord.

12 [a]Ephraim surrounds Me with (H)lies
And the house of Israel with deceit;
[b]Judah is still unruly against God,
Even against the Holy One who is faithful.
