Hosea 7:15-16

Expanded Bible

¹⁵ Though I trained them and ·gave them strength [^Lstrengthened their arms],
    they have ·made evil plans [plotted evil] against me.
¹⁶ They ·did not turn to [or turn, but not to] the Most High God.
    They are like a ·loose bow that can’t shoot [faulty bow].
Because ·their leaders brag about their strength [of their indignant/insolent tongue],
    they will ·be killed with swords [fall by the sword],
and the people in Egypt
    will ·laugh at [ridicule; deride] them.
