In context

10I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the firstfruits of the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves to Shame; so they became as detestable as the thing they loved.

11Ephraim’s glory will fly away like a bird, with no birth, no pregnancy, and no conception.

12Even if they raise their children, I will bereave them of each one. Yes, woe be to them when I turn away from them!

13I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a meadow. But Ephraim will bring out his children for slaughter.

14Give them, O LORD— what will You give? Give them wombs that miscarry and breasts that dry up!
