Hosea

Hosea 11:9–11

9I will not execute the full fury of My anger;

I will not destroy Ephraim again.

For I am God and not man —

the Holy One among you —

and I will not come in wrath.

10They will walk after the LORD;

He will roar like a lion.

When He roars,

His children will come trembling from the west.

11They will come trembling like birds from Egypt

and like doves from the land of Assyria.

Then I will settle them in their homes,

declares the LORD.
