Bible. Hosea
28:011:008 How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee,
Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee
as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are
kindled together.
28:011:009 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not
return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy
One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.
28:011:010 They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion:
when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the
west.
28:011:011 They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out
of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses,
saith the LORD.
28:011:012 Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel
with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful
with the saints.
28:012:001 Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he
daily increaseth lies and desolation; and they do make a
covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt.
28:012:002 The LORD hath also a controversy with Judah, and will punish
Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will he
recompense him.
28:012:003 He took his brother by the heel in the womb, and by his
strength he had power with God:
28:012:004 Yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and
made supplication unto him: he found him in Bethel, and there
he spake with us;
28:012:005 Even the LORD God of hosts; the LORD is his memorial.
28:012:006 Therefore turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment and
wait on thy God continually.
28:012:007 He is a merchant, the balances of deceit are in his hand: he
loveth to oppress.
28:012:008 And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out
substance: in all my labours they shall find none iniquity in
me that were sin.
28:012:009 And I that am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt will yet
make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the
solemn feast.
28:012:010 I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied
visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the
prophets.
28:012:011 Is there iniquity in Gilead? surely they are vanity: they
sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal; yea, their altars are as heaps
in the furrows of the fields.
28:012:012 And Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served
for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.
28:012:013 And by a prophet the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt, and by
a prophet was he preserved.
