And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this.

Verse 10 is found in chapter 7 of Hosea. Ephraim is described as a cake not turned: cooked on one side and raw on the other. The image expresses imbalance and uselessness and is connected with its mixture of identities and alliances. Israel has mixed itself with other peoples and lost its ability to live according to its covenant identity. Despite everything, its pride prevents it from recognizing its decline.

Und die Hoffart Israels zeugt wider sie ins Angesicht; dennoch bekehren sie sich nicht zum HERRN, ihrem Gott, fragen auch nicht nach ihm in diesem allem.
Y la soberbia de Israel testificará contra él en su cara: y no se tornaron a Jehová su Dios, ni lo buscaron con todo esto.
La soberbia de Israel testifica en su contra; a pesar de todo esto, no han vuelto a Jehová su Dios ni lo han buscado.
L'orgueil d'Israël témoigne contre lui; Ils ne reviennent pas à l'Eternel, leur Dieu, Et ils ne le cherchent pas, malgré tout cela.
Perciò, la superbia d’Israele testimonierà contro a lui in faccia; conciossiachè non si sieno convertiti al Signore Iddio loro, e non l’abbiano cercato per tutto ciò.
E a soberba de Israel testificará diante dele; todavia não voltarão para o SENHOR seu Deus, nem o buscarão em tudo isto.
以色列 的驕傲使自己臉面無光。 他們雖遭遇這一切, 仍不歸向耶和華-他們的上帝, 也不尋求他。
