Hoshea 5:12-14

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹² Therefore will I be unto Ephrayim like maggots, and to the Bais Yehudah like rottenness.

¹³ When Ephrayim saw his sickness, and Yehudah saw his sores, then went Ephrayim to the Assyrian, and sent to the great king; yet he was not able to heal you, nor cure you of your wound.

¹⁴ For I will be unto Ephrayim like a lion, and as a great lion to the Bais Yehudah; I, even I, will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there will be no one rescuing.
