10They shall go after the Lord,

who roars like a lion;

when he roars,

his children shall come trembling from the west.*

11They shall come trembling like birds from Egypt

and like doves from the land of Assyria,

and I will return them to their homes, says the Lord.*

12eEphraim has surrounded me with lies

and the house of Israel with deceit,

but Judah still walksf with God

and is faithful to the Holy One.*

But Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.
