Hosea 9:12 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 Rejoice not, O Israel! Exult not like the peoples; for you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. You have loved a harlot's hire upon all threshing floors.
2 Threshing floor and winevat shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail them.
3 They shall not remain in the land of the LORD; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 They shall not pour libations of wine to the LORD; and they shall not please him with their sacrifices. Their bread shall be like mourners' bread; all who eat of it shall be defiled; for their bread shall be for their hunger only; it shall not come to the house of the LORD.
5 What will you do on the day of appointed festival, and on the day of the feast of the LORD?
6 For behold, they are going to Assyria; Egypt shall gather them, Memphis shall bury them. Nettles shall possess their precious things of silver; thorns shall be in their tents.
7 The days of punishment have come, the days of recompense have come; Israel shall know it. The prophet is a fool, the man of the spirit is mad, because of your great iniquity and great hatred.
8 The prophet is the watchman of Ephraim, the people of my God, yet a fowler's snare is on all his ways, and hatred in the house of his God.
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves as in the days of Gibeah: he will remember their iniquity, he will punish their sins.
10 Like grapes in the wilderness, I found Israel. Like the first fruit on the fig tree, in its first season, I saw your fathers. But they came to Baalpeor, and consecrated themselves to Baal, and became detestable like the thing they loved.
11 Ephraim's glory shall fly away like a bird -- no birth, no pregnancy, no conception!
12 Even if they bring up children, I will bereave them till none is left. Woe to them when I depart from them!
13 Ephraim's sons, as I have seen, are destined for a prey; Ephraim must lead forth his sons to slaughter.
14 Give them, O LORD -- what wilt thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
15 Every evil of theirs is in Gilgal; there I began to hate them. Because of the wickedness of their deeds I will drive them out of my house. I will love them no more; all their princes are rebels.
16 Ephraim is stricken, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit. Even though they bring forth, I will slay their beloved children.
17 My God will cast them off, because they have not hearkened to him; they shall be wanderers among the nations.
1 Rejoice H8055 not H408 NPAR , O Israel H3478 , for H413 PREP joy H1524 , as other people H5971 : for H3588 CONJ thou hast gone a whoring H2181 from M-PREP thy God H430 CMP-2MS , thou hast loved H157 a reward H868 upon H5921 M-PREP every H3605 NMS corn H1715 floor H1637 .
2 The floor H1637 and the winepress H3342 shall not H3808 NADV feed H7462 them , and the new wine H8492 shall fail H3584 in her .
3 They shall not H3808 NADV dwell H3427 VQY3MP in the LORD H3068 EDS \'s land H776 B-GFS ; but Ephraim H669 shall return H7725 W-VQQ3MS to Egypt H4714 EFS , and they shall eat H398 unclean H2931 things in Assyria H804 .
4 They shall not H3808 NADV offer H5258 wine H3196 NMS offerings to the LORD H3068 L-EDS , neither H3808 W-NADV shall they be pleasing H6149 unto him : their sacrifices H2077 shall be unto them as the bread H3899 of mourners H205 ; all H3605 NMS that eat H398 thereof shall be polluted H2930 : for H3588 CONJ their bread H3899 for their soul H5315 shall not H3808 NADV come into H935 VQY3MS the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
5 What H4100 IGAT will ye do H6213 in the solemn H4150 NMS day H3117 L-NMS , and in the day H3117 of the feast H2282 of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS ?
6 For H3588 CONJ , lo H2009 IJEC , they are gone H1980 because of destruction H7701 M-NMS : Egypt H4714 EFS shall gather them up H6908 , Memphis H4644 shall bury H6912 them : the pleasant H4261 places for their silver H3701 , nettles H7057 shall possess H3423 them : thorns H2336 NMS shall be in their tabernacles H168 .
7 The days H3117 CMP of visitation H6486 are come H935 VQQ3MP , the days H3117 CMP of recompense H7966 are come H935 VQQ3MP ; Israel H3478 shall know H3045 it : the prophet H5030 is a fool H191 AMS , the spiritual H7307 man H376 NMS is mad H7696 , for H5921 PREP the multitude H7230 of thine iniquity H5771 CMS-2MS , and the great H7227 hatred H4895 .
8 The watchman H6822 of Ephraim H669 was with H5973 PREP my God H430 : but the prophet H5030 is a snare H6341 of a fowler H3352 in H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS his ways H1870 CMP-3MS , and hatred H4895 in the house H1004 B-CMS of his God H430 .
9 They have deeply H6009 corrupted H7843 themselves , as in the days H3117 K-CMP of Gibeah H1390 : therefore he will remember H2142 their iniquity H5771 , he will visit H6485 their sins H2403 .
10 I found H4672 VQQ1MS Israel H3478 like grapes H6025 in the wilderness H4057 ; I saw H7200 VQQ1MS your fathers H1 as the firstripe H1063 in the fig tree H8384 at her first time H7225 : but they H1992 PPRO-3MP went H935 VQQ3MP to Baal H1187 - peor , and separated themselves H5144 unto that shame H1322 ; and their abominations H8251 were H1961 W-VQY3MP according as they loved H157 .
11 As for Ephraim H669 , their glory H3519 shall fly away H5774 like a bird H5775 , from the birth H3205 , and from the womb H990 WM-CFS , and from the conception H2032 .
12 Though H518 PART they bring up H1431 their children H1121 , yet will I bereave H7921 them , that there shall not be a man H120 left : yea H3588 CONJ , woe H188 also H1571 CONJ to them when I depart H5493 from H4480 them !
13 Ephraim H669 , as H834 K-RPRO I saw H7200 VQQ1MS Tyrus H6865 , is planted H8362 in a pleasant place H5116 : but Ephraim H669 shall bring forth H3318 his children H1121 to H413 PREP the murderer H2026 VQPMS .
14 Give H5414 them , O LORD H3068 EDS : what H4100 IPRO wilt thou give H5414 VQY2MS ? give H5414 them a miscarrying H7921 womb H7358 NMS and dry H6784 breasts H7699 .
15 All H3605 NMS their wickedness H7451 CFS-3MP is in Gilgal H1537 : for H3588 CONJ there H8033 ADV I hated H8130 them : for H5921 PREP the wickedness H7455 of their doings H4611 I will drive them out H1644 of mine house H1004 , I will love H157 them no H3808 NADV more H3254 : all H3605 NMS their princes H8269 are revolters H5637 .
16 Ephraim H669 is smitten H5221 , their root H8328 is dried up H3001 , they shall bear H6213 no H1077 fruit H6529 NMS : yea H1571 CONJ , though H3588 CONJ they bring forth H3205 , yet will I slay H4191 even the beloved H4261 fruit of their womb H990 .
17 My God H430 will cast them away H3988 , because H3588 CONJ they did not H3808 NADV hearken H8085 VQQ3MP unto him : and they shall be H1961 wanderers H5074 among the nations H1471 .
