Hosea 13:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ I will destroy you, Israel;
        for you didn’t realize that I could help you.
¹⁰ Where is your king now,
        so that he can save you?
    Where in all your cities are your judges,
        of whom you said,
        “Give me a king and rulers”?
¹¹ I gave you a king in my anger,
        and I took him away in my wrath.
