How shall I give thee up ,
Ephraim ?
how shall I cast thee off ,
Israel ?

how shall I set thee as Zeboiim ?
my heart is turned within me ,
my compassions are kindled together .

I will not return to destroy Ephraim :
for I am God ,

the Holy One in the midst of thee ;
and I will not come in wrath .

who will roar like a lion ;

and as a dove out of the land of Assyria ;
and I will make them to dwell in their houses ,
saith Jehovah .
