Hosea 7:11-13

Complete Jewish Bible

¹¹ Efrayim behaves like a silly, foolish dove —
going to Egypt, then to Ashur for help.
¹² Even as they go, I will spread my net over them;
I will bring them down like birds from the sky;
I will discipline them, as their assembly was told.
¹³ Woe to them! for they have strayed from me.
Destruction to them! for they have wronged me.
Am I supposed to redeem them,
when they have spoken lies against me?
