For they have gone up to Assyria(A)
like a wild donkey going off on its own.
Ephraim has paid for love.(B)

I will now round them up,
and they will begin to decrease in number(C)
under the burden of the king and leaders.(D)

For they have gone up to Assyria,
    a wild donkey alone to itself;
        Ephraim has sold itself for lovers.
10 Even though they have sold themselves to the nations,
    now I will gather them.
They will soon writhe
    from the burden of kings[a] and princes.
