Even though they should rear their children, yet will I bereave them (the Ephraimites) of them (Job 27:14). woe . . . to them when I depart--Yet the ungodly in their madness desire God to depart from them (Job 21:14; Job 22:17; Mat 8:34). At last they know to their cost how awful it is when God has departed (Deu 31:17; Sa1 28:15-16; compare Hos 9:11; Sa1 4:21).
