Hosea 11:11-12

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ They will come back,
fluttering like birds from Egypt
    or like doves from Assyria.
Then I will bring them
back to their homes.
    I, the Lord, have spoken!

¹² Israel is deceitful to me,
    their loyal and holy God;
they surround me with lies,
and Judah worships
    other gods.^[a]
