Hosea 7:15-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵ I brought them up and made them strong.
    But they make evil plans against me.
¹⁶ I am the Most High God. But they do not turn to me.
    They are like a bow that does not shoot straight.
Their leaders will be killed by swords.
    They will die because they have spoken too proudly.
The people of Egypt
    will make fun of them.”
