Hosea 8:8-10

8Israel has been 1swallowed up; They are now among the nations Like a 2vessel in which no one delights.9For they have gone up to 3Assyria, Like 4a wild donkey all alone; Ephraim has 5paid fees for 6lovers.10Even though they 7pay for allies among the nations, I will 8gather them up now; And they will begin 9to diminish Because of the burden of the 10king of officials.
