12 Therefore I will be to Ephraim like a moth,And to the house of Judah like rottenness.
13 “When Ephraim saw his sickness,And Judah saw his wound,Then Ephraim went to AssyriaAnd sent to King Jareb;Yet he cannot cure you,Nor heal you of your wound.
14 For I will be like a lion to Ephraim,And like a young lion to the house of Judah.I, even I, will tear them and go away;I will take them away, and no one shall rescue.
15 I will return again to My placeTill they acknowledge their offense.Then they will seek My face;In their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.”
