Jeremiah 31:20
Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the LORD.
KJV
Si filius honorabilis mihi Ephraim, si puer delicatus ! quia ex quo locutus sum de eo, adhuc recordabor ejus. Idcirco conturbata sunt viscera mea super eum : miserans miserebor ejus, ait Dominus.
Vulgate
κατῃσχύνθη Μωάβ, ὅτι συνετρίβη· ὀλόλυξον καὶ κέκραξον, ἀνάγγειλον ἐν Ἀρνὼν ὅτι ὤλετο Μωάβ,
LXX
Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a darling child? for as often as I speak against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my heart yearneth for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith Jehovah.
