Hosea 9:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 Ephraim, as I saw, is as a tree [a]in Tyre planted in a cottage: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.
14 O Lord, give them: what wilt thou give them? give them a [b]barren womb and dry breasts.
15 All their wickedness is in [c]Gilgal: for there do I hate them: for the wickedness of their inventions, I will cast them out of mine House: I will love them no more: all their princes are rebels.
