Hosea 11:8–9

8 How can I give you up, Ephraim?ag

How can I surrender you, Israel?

How can I make you like Admah?ah

How can I treat you like Zeboiim?ai

I have had a change of heart;

my compassion is stirred!

9 I will not vent the full fury of my anger;aj

I will not turn back to destroy Ephraim.ak

For I am God and not man,

the Holy One among you;al

I will not come in rage.E
