Hosea 8:9-10
Legacy Standard Bible
9 For they have gone up to (A)Assyria
Like (B)a wild donkey all alone;
Ephraim has (C)hired [a]lovers.
10 Even though they hire allies among the nations,
Now I will (D)gather them up;
And they will begin (E)to [b]diminish
Because of the burden of the (F)king of princes.
