Hosea 11:8

as Admah . . . Zeboim—among the cities, including Sodom and Gomorrah, irretrievably overthrown (Deuteronomy 29:23).

heart is turned within me—with the deepest compassion, so as not to execute My threat (Lamentations 1:20; compare Genesis 43:30; I Kings 3:26). So the phrase is used of a new turn given to the feeling (Psalms 105:25).
