Hosea 9:10-15 English Revised Version (ERV)

10. I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first season: but they came to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves unto the shameful thing, and became abominable like that which they loved.

11. As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird: there shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception.

12. Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there be not a man left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!

13. Ephraim, like as I have seen Tyre, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring out his children to the slayer.

14. Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

15. All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hated them: because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house: I will love them no more; all their princes are revolters.
