Hosea 7:11
Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
KJV
Et factus est Ephraim quasi columba seducta non habens cor. Ægyptum invocabant ; ad Assyrios abierunt.
Vulgate
καὶ ἦν Ἐφράιμ ὡς περιστερὰ ἄνους, οὐκ ἔχουσα καρδίαν· Αἴγυπτον ἐπεκαλεῖτο, καὶ εἰς Ἀσσυρίους ἐπορεύθησαν.
LXX
And Ephraim is like a silly dove, without understanding: they call unto Egypt, they go to Assyria.
