11 As for Ephraim, their (A)glory will fly away like a bird—
No birth, no pregnancy, and no conception!
12 Though they bring up their children,
Yet I will bereave them of their children [a]until not a person is left.
Yes, (B)woe to them indeed when I depart from them!
13 Ephraim, as I have seen,
Is planted in a pasture like (C)Tyre;
But Ephraim is going to bring out his children for slaughter.
