12eEven if they bring up children,
I will bereave them till none is left.
fWoe to them
when gI depart from them!
13Ephraim, has I have seen, was like a young palm1 planted in a meadow;
but eEphraim must lead his children out to slaughter.2
14Give them, O Lord—
what will you give?
Give them ia miscarrying womb
and dry breasts.

Even if you do have children who grow up,
I will take them from you.
It will be a terrible day when I turn away
and leave you alone.
I have watched Israel become as beautiful as Tyre.
But now Israel will bring out her children for slaughter.”
O Lord, what should I request for your people?
I will ask for wombs that don’t give birth
and breasts that give no milk.

Yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!
