Hosea 13:15-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁵     Even though they are doing well among the other tribes,
    trouble will come to them.
I will send a hot and dry wind from the east.
    It will blow in from the desert.
Their springs will not have any water.
    Their wells will dry up.
All their treasures
    will be taken out of their storerooms.
¹⁶ The people of Samaria must pay for their sins.
    They have refused to obey me.
They will be killed by swords.
    Their little children will be smashed on the ground.
    Their pregnant women will be ripped wide open.”
