9Ephraim will be laid wastep

on the day of reckoning.q

Among the tribes of Israel

I proclaim what is certain.r

10Judah’s leaders are like those

who move boundary stones.s

I will pour out my wratht on them

like a flood of water.

11Ephraim is oppressed,

trampled in judgment,

intent on pursuing idols.cu

12I am like a mothv to Ephraim,

like rotw to the people of Judah.

13“When Ephraimx saw his sickness,

and Judah his sores,

then Ephraim turned to Assyria,y

and sent to the great king for help.z

But he is not able to curea you,

not able to heal your sores.b

14For I will be like a lionc to Ephraim,

like a great lion to Judah.

I will tear them to piecesd and go away;

I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them.e

ESVEnglish Standard Version

Ephraim shall become a desolation

in the day of punishment;

among the tribes of Israel

I make known what is sure.

The princes of Judah have become

like those who move the landmark;

upon them I will pour out

my wrath like water.

Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment,

because he was determined to go after filth.

But I am like a moth to Ephraim,

and like dry rot to the house of Judah.

When Ephraim saw his sickness,

and Judah his wound,

then Ephraim went to Assyria,

and sent to the great king.

But he is not able to cure you

or heal your wound.

For I will be like a lion to Ephraim,

and like a young lion to the house of Judah.

I, even I, will tear and go away;

I will carry off, and no one shall rescue.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Ephraim will become a desolation

on the day of punishment;

I announce what is certain

among the tribes of Israel.

The princes of Judah are like those

who move boundary markers;

I will pour out my fury on them like water.

Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment,

for he is determined to follow what is worthless.

So I am like rot to Ephraim

and like decay to the house of Judah.

When Ephraim saw his sickness

and Judah his wound,

Ephraim went to Assyria

and sent a delegation to the great king.

But he cannot cure you or heal your wound.

For I am like a lion to Ephraim

and like a young lion to the house of Judah.

Yes, I will tear them to pieces and depart.

I will carry them off,

and no one can rescue them.

NLTNew Living Translation

One thing is certain, Israel:

On your day of punishment,

you will become a heap of rubble.

“The leaders of Judah have become like thieves.

So I will pour my anger on them like a waterfall.

The people of Israel will be crushed and broken by my judgment

because they are determined to worship idols.

I will destroy Israel as a moth consumes wool.

I will make Judah as weak as rotten wood.

“When Israel and Judah saw how sick they were,

Israel turned to Assyria—

to the great king there—

but he could neither help nor cure them.

I will be like a lion to Israel,

like a strong young lion to Judah.

I will tear them to pieces!

I will carry them off,

and no one will be left to rescue them.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Ephraim will be a desolation

in the day of punishment;

among the tribes of Israel

I will reveal what is true.

The princes of Judah have become

like those who remove a landmark;

on them I will pour out

my wrath like water.

Ephraim is oppressed,

crushed in judgment,

because he was determined

to go after filth.

But I am like a maggot to Ephraim

and like rottenness to the house of Judah.

And when Ephraim saw his illness,

and Judah his wound,

Ephraim went to Assyria,

he sent to the great king.

But he was unable to cure you

and heal your wound.

Because I will be like a lion to Ephraim

and like a fierce strong lion to the house of Judah.

I myself will tear and I will go;

I will carry off, and there is no one who delivers.

KJV 1900King James Version

Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke:

Among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.

The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound:

Therefore I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.

Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment,

Because he willingly walked after the commandment.

Therefore will I be unto Ephraim as a moth,

And to the house of Judah as rottenness.

When Ephraim saw his sickness,

And Judah saw his wound,

Then went Ephraim to the Assyrian,

And sent to king Jareb:

Yet could he not heal you,

Nor cure you of your wound.

For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion,

And as a young lion to the house of Judah:

I, even I, will tear and go away;

I will take away, and none shall rescue him.
