A Lament for Israel
5 Hear this word which I (A)take up against you, a lamentation, O house of Israel:
2 The virgin of Israel has fallen;
She will rise no more.
She lies forsaken on her land;
There is no one to raise her up.
3 For thus says the Lord God:
“The city that goes out by a thousand
Shall have a hundred left,
And that which goes out by a hundred
Shall have ten left to the house of Israel.”
Hosea 9:3
New King James Version
3 They shall not dwell in (A)the Lord’s land,
(B)But Ephraim shall return to Egypt,
And (C)shall eat unclean things in Assyria.
