Hosea 13:3

“Are they as straw before the wind, And like chaff which the storm steals away?

“Terrors are turned against me; They pursue my nobility as the wind, And my hope for salvation has passed away like a cloud.

As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; As wax melts before the fire, So let the wicked perish before God.

“Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your lovingkindness is like a morning cloud And like the dew which goes away early.

Before the decree takes effect— The day passes like the chaff— Before the burning anger of Yahweh comes upon you, Before the day of Yahweh’s anger comes upon you.

‘For there will be peace for the seed: the vine will yield its fruit, the land will yield its produce, and the heavens will give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.
