Seeking Foreign Help Instead of God
13
When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah saw his wound, then went Ephraim to Assyria, and sent to king Jareb: but he is not able to heal you, neither will he cure you of your wound.
14
For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will carry off, and there shall be none to deliver.
15
I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly.
