“Though they bring up their children,yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left.Indeed, woe also to them when I depart from them!”
Hosea 9:12 (WEB)
Context Reading
10I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness.I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at its first season;but they came to Baal Peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing,and became abominable like that which they loved. 11As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird.There will be no birth, no one with child, and no conception. 12Though they bring up their children,yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left.Indeed, woe also to them when I depart from them! 13I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place;but Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer. 14Give them — Yahweh what will you give?Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
