9Strangers have devoured his strength, and he doesn`t know [it]: yes, gray hairs are here and there on him, and he doesn`t know [it].
10The pride of Israel does testify to his face: yet they have not returned to Yahweh their God, nor sought him, for all this.
11Ephraim is like a silly dove, without understanding: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
12When they shall go, I will spread my net on them; I will bring them down as the birds of the sky; I will chastise them, as their congregation has heard.
13Woe to them! for they have wandered from me; destruction to them! for they have trespassed against me: though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
14They have not cried to me with their heart, but they howl on their beds: they assemble themselves for grain and new wine; they rebel against me.
15Though I have taught and strengthened their arms, yet do they devise mischief against me.
