Hosea 9:1
|
|
Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, like the peoples;
for thou hast played the harlot, departing from thy God; thou hast loved hire
upon every grain-floor. |
|
|
|

|
The threshing-floor and the winepress shall
not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her. |

They shall not dwell in Jehovah's land; but
Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria. |
|
|
|
Hosea 9:4
|
|
They
shall not pour out wine-offerings to Jehovah, neither shall they be pleasing unto
him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat
thereof shall be polluted; for their bread shall be for their appetite; it shall
not come into the house of Jehovah. |
|
|

yet Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them; their pleasant things
of silver, nettles shall possess them; thorns shall be in their tents. |

Hosea 9:7
|
|
The days of visitation are come, the days of
recompense are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the man that
hath the spirit is mad, for the abundance of thine iniquity, and because the enmity
is great. |
|
|
|

Ephraim was a watchman with my God: as for the
prophet, a fowler's snare is in all his ways, and enmity in the house of his God.
|
|

|
They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in
the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
|
|
|
|
Hosea 9:10
|
|
I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness;
I saw your fathers as the first-ripe in the fig-tree at its first season: but
they came to Baal-peor, and consecrated themselves unto the shameful thing, and
became abominable like that which they loved. |
|
|
|

As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like
a bird: there shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception. |

Though they bring up their children, yet will
I bereave them, so that not a man shall be left: yea, woe also to them when I
depart from them! |
|

Ephraim, like as I have seen Tyre, is planted
in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring out his children to the slayer. |

Give them, O Jehovah-what wilt thou give? give
them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. |
|
|

All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there
I hated them: because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out
of my house; I will love them no more; all their princes are revolters. |
|
|
|

|
Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up,
they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay the beloved
fruit of their womb. |

My God will cast them away, because they did
not hearken unto him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations. |
