10 “I found Israel
Like grapes in the awilderness;

But they went to cBaal Peor,
And1 separated themselves to that shame;
dThey became an abomination like the thing they loved.

11 As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird—
No birth, no pregnancy, and no conception!
No birth, no pregnancy, and no conception!
12 Though they bring up their children,
Yet I will bereave them to the last man.
Yes, awoe to them when I depart from them!

13 Just aas I saw Ephraim like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place,
So Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer.”

I will drive them from My house;
I will love them no more.
bAll their princes are rebellious.
