Hosea 9

1RejoiceH8055 notH408, O IsraelH3478, for joyH8055, like the peoplesH5971; for thou hast gone a whoring from thy GodH430, thou hast lovedH157 hireH868 uponH5921 everyH3605 cornfloor. 2The threshing-floor and the winepressH3342 shall notH3808 feedH7462 them, and the newH8492 wineH8492 shall failH3584 her. 3They shall notH3808 dwellH3427 in the LORD’SH3068 landH776; but EphraimH669 shall returnH7725 to EgyptH4714, and they shall eatH398 uncleanH2931 foodH398 in AssyriaH804. 4They shall notH3808 pourH5258 outH3605 wineH3196 offeringsH3068 to the LORDH3068, neitherH3808 shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrificesH2077 shall be unto them as the breadH3899 of mourners; allH3605 that eatH398 thereof shall be polluted: for their breadH3899 shall be for their appetiteH5315; it shall notH3808 comeH935 intoH935 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. 5WhatH4100 will ye doH6213 in the dayH3117 of solemn assemblyH4150, and in the dayH3117 of the feastH2282 of the LORDH3068? 6For, loH2009, they are goneH1980 awayH1980 from destructionH7701, yet EgyptH4714 shall gatherH6908 them up, MemphisH4644 shall buryH6912 them: their pleasantH4261 things of silverH3701, nettlesH7057 shall possessH3423 them: thornsH2336 shall be in their tentsH168. 7The daysH3117 of visitation are comeH935, the daysH3117 of recompence are comeH935; IsraelH3478 shall knowH3045 it: the prophetH5030 is a foolH191, the manH376 that hath the spiritH7307 is madH7696, for the multitudeH7230 of thine iniquityH5771, and becauseH5921 the enmity is greatH7227. 8EphraimH669 was a watchmanH6822 with my GodH430: as for the prophetH5030, a fowler’s snareH6341 is in allH3605 his waysH1870, and enmity in the houseH1004 of his GodH430. 9They have deeplyH6009 corruptedH7843 themselvesH5771, as in the daysH3117 of GibeahH1390: he will rememberH2142 their iniquityH5771, he will visitH6485 their sinsH2403. 10I foundH4672 IsraelH3478 like grapesH6025 in the wildernessH4057; I sawH7200 your fathersH1 as the firstripe in the figH8384 treeH8384 at herH7200 firstH7225 season: but they cameH935 to Baal-peorH1187, and consecrated themselvesH1992 unto the shamefulH1322 thingH1322, and becameH1961 abominableH8251 like that which they lovedH157. 11As for EphraimH669, their gloryH3519 shall flyH5774 away like a birdH5775: there shall be no birthH3205, and none with childH3205, and no conceptionH2032. 12ThoughH3588 they bringH1431 upH1431 their childrenH1121, yet will I bereaveH7921 them, that there be notH518 a manH120 leftH5493: yeaH3588, woeH188 also to them when I departH5493 from them! 13EphraimH669, like as I have seenH7200 TyreH6865, is plantedH8362 in a pleasant place: but EphraimH669 shall bringH3318 outH3318 his childrenH1121 to the slayerH2026. 14GiveH5414 them, O LORDH3068: whatH4100 wilt thou giveH5414? giveH5414 them a miscarryingH7921 wombH7358 and dryH6784 breastsH7699. 15AllH3605 their wickednessH7455 is in GilgalH1537; for there I hatedH8130 them: becauseH3588 of the wickednessH7455 of their doingsH4611 I will driveH1644 them outH1644 of mine houseH1004: I will loveH160 them noH3808 moreH3254; allH3605 their princesH8269 are revolters. 16EphraimH669 is smittenH5221, their rootH8328 is driedH3001 upH3001, they shall bearH3205 noH1097 fruitH6529: yeaH3588, thoughH3588 they bringH3205 forthH3205, yet will I slayH4191 the beloved fruitH6529 of their wombH990. 17My GodH430 will cast them awayH5074, becauseH3588 they didH3808 notH3808 hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderersH5074 among the nationsH1471.
