Hosea 13:13-15

Lexham English Bible

¹³ The labor pains of childbirth come for him;
    he is an unwise son
because at the proper time, he does not present himself
    at the mouth of the womb.^[a]
14 Should I redeem them from the power^[b] of Sheol? ^[c]
    Should I deliver them from death?
Where are your plagues, O Death?
    Where is your destruction, O Sheol?^[d]
Compassion is hidden from my eyes.
¹⁵     Although he may flourish among reeds,^[e]
the east wind will come, a wind of Yahweh
    rising from the desert;
his fountain will dry up,
    his spring will be parched.
It will plunder his treasury,^[f]
    every object of desire.
