LITV(i)
12 Though they nourish their sons, yet I will make them childless, without a man. Yea, woe also to them when I turn away from them!
13 As when I looked toward Tyre, Ephraim was planted in a pleasant place. But Ephraim shall bring forth his sons to the slayer.
14 O Jehovah, give them. What will you give them? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
15 All their wickedness is in Gilgal, for there I hated them. I will drive them out of My house for the wickedness of their doings, I will not love them again; all their rulers are revolters.
16 Ephraim is stricken; their root is dried up; they shall bear no fruit. Yea, though they bear, yet I will kill the beloved ones of their womb.
