← Hosea 9:11	Hosea 9:12 (KJV)	Hosea 9:13 →
[As for] Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.	Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, [that there shall] not [be] a man [left]: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!	Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, [is] planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.
