Hosea 9:16-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
16 [a]Ephraim is stricken,
their root is dried up;(A)
they will bear no fruit.(B)
Were they to bear children,
I would slay the beloved of their womb.
17 My God will disown them
because they have not listened to him;
they will be wanderers among the nations.(C)
