Hosea 11:12-12:2

New King James Version

¹² “Ephraim has encircled Me with lies,
And the house of Israel with deceit;
But Judah still walks with God,
Even with the ^[a]Holy One who is faithful.

12 “Ephraim ^(A)feeds on the wind,
And pursues the east wind;
He daily increases lies and ^[b]desolation.
^(B)Also they make a ^[c]covenant with the Assyrians,
And ^(C)oil is carried to Egypt.
