Hosea 8
New American Standard Bible 2020
Israel Reaps the Whirlwind
11Put the trumpetH7782 to your 2lipsH2441! 3Like an eagleH5404 the enemy comes 4againstH5921 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, BecauseH3282 they have 5violatedH5674 My covenantH1285 And rebelledH6586 againstH5921 My 6LawH8451.27They cryH2199 outH2199 to Me, “My GodH430, 8we of IsraelH3478 knowH3045 You!”3IsraelH3478 has rejectedH2186 the goodH2896; The enemyH340 will pursueH7291 him.49They have setH4427 upH4427 kingsH4427, but not by Me; They have appointedH8323 officialsH8323, but I did not knowH3045 it. With their 10silverH3701 and goldH2091 they have madeH6213 idolsH6091 for themselves, SoH4616 thatH4616 11they will be eliminatedH3772.512He has rejectedH2186 your 13calfH5695, SamariaH8111, saying, “My angerH639 burnsH2734 against them!” HowH4970 longH5704 will they beH3201 incapableH3808H3201 of 14innocenceH5356?6For from IsraelH3478 comes even thisH1931! A 15craftsmanH2796 madeH6213 it, so it is not GodH430; AssuredlyH3588, the calfH5695 of SamariaH8111 will be brokenH7616 toH7616 16piecesH7616.7For 17they sowH2232 windH7307 And they harvestH7114 a 18stormH5492. The standingH7054 grainH7054 hasH369 noH369 19kernelsH6780; It yieldsH6213 20noH1097 21grainH7058. IfH194 it were to yieldH6213, strangersH2114 would swallowH1104 it.
8IsraelH3478 has been 22swallowedH1104 upH1104; They are nowH6258 among the nationsH1471 Like a 23vesselH3627 in which noH369 oneH369 delightsH2656.9For they have goneH5927 upH5927 to 24AssyriaH804, Like 25a wildH6501 donkeyH6501 all aloneH909; EphraimH669 has 26paidH8566 feesH8566 forH8566 27loversH158.10EvenH1571 thoughH3588 they 28payH8566 for allies among the nationsH1471, I will 29gatherH6908 them up nowH6258; And they will beginH2490 30to diminishH4592 BecauseH4480 of the burdenH4853 of the 31kingH4428 of officialsH8269.
11SinceH3588 EphraimH669 has 32multipliedH7235 altarsH4196 for sinH2398, They have becomeH1961 altarsH4196 of sinningH2398 for him.12Though 33I wroteH3789 for him tenH7239 thousandH7239 precepts of My 34LawH8451, They are regardedH2803 as a strangeH2114 thingH2114.13As for My 35sacrificialH2077 giftsH1890, They 36sacrificeH2076 the fleshH1320 and eatH398 it, But the LordH3068 has takenH7521 noH3808 delightH7521 in them. NowH6258 He will 37rememberH2142 their guiltH5771, And 38punishH6485 them for their sinsH2403; They will returnH7725 to 39EgyptH4714.14For IsraelH3478 has 40forgottenH7911 his MakerH6213 and 41builtH1129 palacesH1964; And JudahH3063 has multipliedH7235 fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892, But I will sendH7971 a 42fireH784 on its citiesH5892, and it will consumeH398 its palatialH759 buildingsH759.
