12 Therefore I am like a amoth to Ephraim
And like rottenness to the house of Judah.
13 Then Ephraim saw his sickness,
And Judah his sore,
So Ephraim went to aAssyria
And sent to bKing Jareb.
But he is cunable to heal you
Or to cure you of your sore.
14 For I will be alike a lion to Ephraim
And like a young lion to the house of Judah.
bI, even I, will tear to pieces and go away;
I will carry away, and there will be cnone to deliver.
