Hosea 13:15-16
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
15 Although he may flourish among rushes,[a]
the east wind shall come, a blast from the Lord,
rising from the wilderness,
and his fountain shall dry up;
his spring shall be parched.
It shall strip his treasury
of every precious thing.(A)
16 [b]Samaria shall bear her guilt
because she has rebelled against her God;
they shall fall by the sword;
their little ones shall be dashed in pieces,
and their pregnant women ripped open.(B)
Hosea 13:15-16
