5:14 I will be like a lion to Ephraim,
like a young lion to the house of Judah.
I myself will tear them to pieces,
then I will carry them off, and no one will be able to rescue them!
5:15 Then I will return again to my lair
until they have suffered their punishment. 1
Then they will seek me; 2
in their distress they will earnestly seek me.
9:8 The prophet 3 is a watchman 4 over Ephraim 5 on behalf of God, 6
yet traps 7 are laid for him along all of his paths; 8
animosity rages against him in the land 9 of his God.
10:13 But you have plowed wickedness;
you have reaped injustice;
you have eaten the fruit of deception.
Because you have depended on your chariots; 10
you have relied 11 on your many warriors.
