Hosea 5:11-15

Ephraim is oppressed, broken by judgment, Because he was determined to follow man’s command.

Therefore I am like a moth to Ephraim, And like rottenness to the house of Judah.

When Ephraim saw his sickness, And Judah his sore, Ephraim then went to Assyria And sent word to King Jareb. But he is unable to heal you, Or to cure you of your sore.

For I will be like a lion to Ephraim And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, yes I, will tear to pieces and go away, I will carry away, and there will be no one to rescue.

I will go away and return to My place Until they acknowledge their guilt and seek My face; In their distress they will search for Me.
