10. Like grapes in the desert,I found Israel;Like the first fruits of the fig tree, its first to ripen,I looked on your ancestors.But when they came to Baal-peor and consecrated themselves to the Shameful One,they became as abhorrent as the thing they loved.
11. Ephraim is like a bird:their glory flies away—no birth, no pregnancy, no conception.
12. Even though they bring up their children,I will make them childless, until no one is left.Indeed, woe to themwhen I turn away from them!
