Isn’t Ephraim a precious son to me, a delightful child? Whenever I speak against him, I certainly still think about him. Therefore, my inner being yearns for him; I will truly have compassion on him. This is the Lord’s declaration.
Look down from heaven and see from your lofty home #– #holy and beautiful. Where is your zeal and your might? Your yearning and your compassion are withheld from me.
