Hosea 11:8. How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.
God represents himself as holding a controversy within himself, "These people I must punish. These people I love. I shall have to give them up. I cannot give them up." Justice debating with mercy, and mercy triumphant over justice.
