Hosea 9:1-7 (King James Version)
View In My Bible
1
Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor .
2
The floor and the winepressa shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her.
3
They shall not dwell in the LORD'S land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things in Assyria.
4
They shall not offer wine offerings to the LORD, 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 for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.
5
What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?
6
For, lo, they are gone because of destruction:b Egypt shall gather them up , Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles.
7
The days of visitation are come , the days of recompence are come ; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritualc man is mad , for the multitude of thine iniquity, and the great hatred.
