12. I am like a moth for Ephraim,like rot for the house of Judah.
13. When Ephraim saw his infirmity,and Judah his sore,Ephraim went to Assyria,and sent to the great king. But he cannot heal you,nor take away your sore.
14. For I am like a lion to Ephraim,like a young lion to the house of Judah;It is I who tear the prey and depart,I carry it away and no one can save it.
15. I will go back to my placeuntil they make reparationand seek my presence.In their affliction, they shall look for me.
