acv@Hosea:9:1 @ Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy like the peoples, for thou have played the harlot, [departing] from thy God. Thou have loved hire upon every grain-floor.

acv@Hosea:9:2 @ The threshing floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.

acv@Hosea:9:3 @ They shall not dwell in LORD's land, but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.

acv@Hosea:9:4 @ They shall not pour out wine-offerings to LORD, nor shall they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices shall be to them as the bread of mourners. All who eat of it shall be polluted, for their bread shall be for their appetite. It sha

acv@Hosea:9:5 @ What will ye do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of LORD?

acv@Hosea:9:6 @ For, lo, they have gone away from destruction, [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.

acv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of visitation have come. The days of recompense have come. Israel shall know it. The prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the abundance of thine iniquity, and because the enmity is great.

acv@Hosea:9:8 @ 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.

acv@Hosea:9:9 @ They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity. He will visit their sins.

acv@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 to the shameful thing, and became abominable like that w

acv@Hosea:9:11 @ As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird. There shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception.

acv@Hosea:9:12 @ Though they bring up their sons, yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left. Yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!

acv@Hosea:9:13 @ Ephraim, just as I have seen Tyre, is planted in a pleasant place, but Ephraim shall bring out his sons to the slayer.

acv@Hosea:9:14 @ Give them, O LORD--what will thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

acv@Hosea:9:15 @ 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 rulers are rebels.

acv@Hosea:9:16 @ Ephraim is smitten. Their root is dried up. They shall bear no fruit. Yea, though they bring forth, yet I will kill the beloved fruit of their womb.

acv@Hosea:9:17 @ My God will cast them away because they did not hearken to him, and they shall be wanderers among the nations.

acv@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. According to the goodness of their land they have made goodly pillars.

acv@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is divided. Now they shall be found guilty. He will smite their altars. He will destroy their pillars.

acv@Hosea:10:3 @ Surely now they shall say, We have no king, for we fear not LORD. And the king, what can he do for us?

acv@Hosea:10:4 @ They speak [vain] words, swearing falsely in making covenants. Therefore judgment springs up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.

acv@Hosea:10:5 @ The inhabitants of Samaria shall be in terror for the calves of Beth-aven. For the people of it shall mourn over it, and the priests of it, who rejoiced over it for the glory of it, because it has departed from it.

acv@Hosea:10:6 @ It shall also be carried to Assyria for a present to king Jareb. Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.

acv@Hosea:10:7 @ [As for] Samaria, her king is cut off, as foam upon the water.

acv@Hosea:10:8 @ The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed. The thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars, and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us, and to the hills, Fall on us.

acv@Hosea:10:9 @ O Israel, thou have sinned from the days of Gibeah. There they stood. The battle against the sons of iniquity does not overtake them in Gibeah.

acv@Hosea:10:10 @ When it is my desire, I will chastise them. And the peoples shall be gathered against them, when they are bound to their two transgressions.

acv@Hosea:10:11 @ And Ephraim is a heifer that is taught, that loves to tread out [the grain]. But I have passed over upon her fair neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah shall plow. Jacob shall break his clods.

acv@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow to yourselves in righteousness. Reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek LORD, till he comes and rains righteousness upon you.

acv@Hosea:10:13 @ Ye have plowed wickedness. Ye have reaped iniquity. Ye have eaten the fruit of lies. For thou trusted in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.

acv@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore a tumult shall arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel in the day of battle; the mother was dashed in pieces with her sons.

acv@Hosea:10:15 @ So shall Bethel do to you because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel shall be utterly cut off.
