I will not again destroy Ephraim.
aFor I am God, and not man,
The Holy One in your midst;
And I will not1 come with terror.
aHe will roar like a lion.
When He roars,
Then His sons shall come trembling from the west;
aLike a dove from the land of Assyria.
bAnd I will let them dwell in their houses,”
Says the Lord.
God’s Charge Against Ephraim
And the house of Israel with deceit;
But Judah still walks with God,
Even with the1 Holy One who is faithful.
