Hosea 11:8-9
Modern English Version
8 How can I give you up, Ephraim?
How can I hand you over, Israel?
How can I make you like Admah?
How can I treat you like Zeboyim?
My heart churns within Me;
My compassion is stirred.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of My anger;
I will not again destroy Ephraim.
For I am God, and not man,
the Holy One in your midst,
and I will not come in wrath.
Hosea 11:8-9
New King James Version
8 “How(A) can I give you up, Ephraim?
How can I hand you over, Israel?
How can I make you like (B)Admah?
How can I set you like Zeboiim?
My heart [a]churns within Me;
My sympathy is stirred.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of My anger;
I will not again destroy Ephraim.
(C)For I am God, and not man,
The Holy One in your midst;
And I will not [b]come with terror.
