nkjv - Hosea:9:1-10

nkjv@Hosea:9:1 @ Do not rejoice, O Israel, with joy like other peoples, For you have played the harlot against your God. You have made love for hire on every threshing floor.

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

nkjv@Hosea:9:3 @ They shall not dwell in the LORD's land, But Ephraim shall return to Egypt, And shall eat unclean things in Assyria.

nkjv@Hosea:9:4 @ They shall not offer wine offerings to the LORD, Nor shall their sacrifices be pleasing to Him. It shall be like bread of mourners to them; All who eat it shall be defiled. For their bread shall be for their own life; It shall not come into the house of the LORD.

nkjv@Hosea:9:5 @ What will you do in the appointed day, And in the day of the feast of the LORD?

nkjv@Hosea:9:6 @ For indeed they are gone because of destruction. Egypt shall gather them up; Memphis shall bury them. Nettles shall possess their valuables of silver; Thorns shall be in their tents.

nkjv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of punishment have come; The days of recompense have come. Israel knows! The prophet is a fool, The spiritual man is insane, Because of the greatness of your iniquity and great enmity.

nkjv@Hosea:9:8 @ The watchman of Ephraim is with my God; But the prophet is a fowler's snare in all his ways-- Enmity in the house of his God.

nkjv@Hosea:9:9 @ They are deeply corrupted, As in the days of Gibeah. He will remember their iniquity; He will punish their sins.

nkjv@Hosea:9:10 @ "I found Israel Like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers As the firstfruits on the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal Peor, And separated themselves to that shame; They became an abomination like the thing they loved.
