Hosea:9:1-10
asv@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.
asv@Hosea:9:2 @The threshing-floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.
asv@Hosea:9:3 @They shall not dwell in Jehovah's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
asv@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.
asv@Hosea:9:5 @What will ye do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?
asv@Hosea:9:6 @For, lo, they are 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.
asv@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.
asv@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.
asv@Hosea:9:9 @They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
asv@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.
