10 Although they have sold themselves among the nations,

I will now gather them together.

They will begin to waste away

under the oppression of the mighty king.

10 Though they hire allies among the nations,

I will soon gather them up.

And the king and princes shall soon writhe

because of the tribute.

10 Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them,

And they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.

10 But though they have sold themselves to many allies,

I will now gather them together for judgment.

Then they will writhe

under the burden of the great king.

10 Yes, though they have hired among the nations,

Now I will gather them;

And they shall sorrow a little,

Because of the burden of the king of princes.

10 Although Israel is mixed among the nations,

I will gather them together.

They will become weaker and weaker

as they suffer under the great king of Assyria.

10 Yea, though they hire among the nations, now will I gather them; and they begin to be diminished by reason of the burden of the king of princes.

10 Although they hire among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall begin to be straitened under the burden of the king of princes.

10 Even though they sold themselves among the nations, 

I will gather them now. 

They will suffer for a while under the burdens of kings and princes. 

10 Even though they hire lovers among the nations,

I will now round them up,

and they will begin to decrease in number

under the burden of the king and leaders.

10 Though they bargain with the nations,

I will now gather them up.

They shall soon writhe

under the burden of kings and princes.

10 Even though they have sold themselves to the nations,

now I will gather them.

They will soon writhe

from the burden of kings and princes.

10 They have sold themselves to the nations

to get their help.

But now I will gather them together.

They will get weaker and weaker.

The mighty kings of Assyria will crush them.
