5 “Will they not return to Egypt

and will not Assyria rule over them

because they refuse to repent?

5 They shall not return to the land of Egypt,

but Assyria shall be their king,

because they have refused to return to me.

5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt,

But the Assyrian shall be his king,

Because they refused to return.

5 “But since my people refuse to return to me,

they will return to Egypt

and will be forced to serve Assyria.

5 “He shall not return to the land of Egypt;

But the Assyrian shall be his king,

Because they refused to repent.

5 “The Israelites will become captives again, as they were in Egypt,

and Assyria will become their king,

because they refuse to turn back to God.

5 They shall not return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian shall be their king, because they refused to return to me.

5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king; for they refused to return to me;

5 “They will not return to Egypt. 

Instead, Assyria will rule them 

because they have refused to return to me. 

5 Israel will not return to the land of Egypt

and Assyria will be his king,

because they refused to repent.

5 They shall return to the land of Egypt,

and Assyria shall be their king,

because they have refused to return to me.

5 “But they refuse to turn away from their sins.

So they will return to Egypt.

And Assyria will rule over them.

5 They will not return to the land of Egypt;

But Assyria—he will be their king

Because they refused to return to Me.
