Hosea 13:4-14 - Death And Resurrection

⁴ But I am the Lord your God, from the land of Egypt; you have knowledge of no other God and there is no saviour but me. ⁵ I had knowledge of you in the waste land where no water was. ⁶ When I gave them food they were full, and their hearts were full of pride, and they did not keep me in mind. ⁷ So I will be like a lion to them; as a cruel beast I will keep watch by the road; ⁸ I will come face to face with them like a bear whose young ones have been taken from her, and their inmost hearts will be broken; there the dogs will make a meal of them; they will be wounded by the beasts of the field. ⁹ I have sent destruction on you, O Israel; who will be your helper?

¹⁰ Where is your king, that he may be your saviour? and all your rulers, that they may take up your cause? of whom you said, Give me a king and rulers. ¹¹ I have given you a king, because I was angry, and have taken him away in my wrath. ¹² The wrongdoing of Ephraim is shut up; his sin is put away in secret. ¹³ The pains of a woman in childbirth will come on him: he is an unwise son, for at this time it is not right for him to keep his place when children come to birth.

¹⁴ I will give the price to make them free from the power of the underworld, I will be their saviour from death: O death! where are your pains? O underworld! where is your destruction? my eyes will have no pity.
