Hosea 13:13-15
Good News Translation
13 Israel has a chance to live, but is too foolish to take it—like a child about to be born, who refuses to come out of the womb. 14 (A)I will not save this people from the world of the dead or rescue them from the power of death. Bring on[a] your plagues, death! Bring on[b] your destruction, world of the dead! I will no longer have pity for this people. 15 Even though Israel flourishes like weeds,[c] I will send a hot east wind from the desert, and it will dry up their springs and wells. It will take away everything of value.

New International Version
13 Pains as of a woman in childbirth(A) come to him,
but he is a child without wisdom;
when the time(B) arrives,
he doesn’t have the sense to come out of the womb.(C)
