10 Eternal One: When I discovered Israel, he was a rare find,
        like grapes in the wilderness, like early figs on a young fig tree.
    I met your ancestors;
        when they came to Baal-peor,
    They dedicated themselves through their worship to an object of shame,
        and they became as detestable as the thing they loved.

11     Ephraim’s glory will fly away like a bird:

12     And even if they do have children,
        I’ll take every single one of them away.
        It will be sorrowful for them when I abandon them!
