Futile Reliance on the Nations
11 “Ephraim(A) also is like a silly dove, without [a]sense—

I will chastise them

11 Ephraim was like a dove,
silly, without sense;[a]
they call to Egypt,
they go to Assyria.
12 Just as they go, I will cast my net
over them;
I will bring them down
like the birds[b] of the heavens;[c]
I will discipline them
according to a report to their assembly.[d]
