Hosea 10:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 It is my desire [a]that I should chastise them, and the people shall be gathered against them, when they shall gather themselves in their two [b]furrows.
11 And Ephraim is as a heifer used to delight in [c]threshing: but I will pass by her [d]fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride: Judah shall plow, and Jacob shall break his clods.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness: reap after the measure of mercy: [e]break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
