Hosea 9:7 (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 O Israel, H3478 for H413 joy, H1524 as other people: H5971 for H3588 thou hast gone a whoring H2181 from H4480 H5921 thy God, H430 thou hast loved H157 a reward H868 upon H5921 every H3605 corn H1715 floor. H1637
2 The floor H1637 and the winepress H3342 shall not H3808 feed H7462 them , and the new wine H8492 shall fail H3584 in her.
3 They shall not H3808 dwell H3427 in the LORD's H3068 land; H776 but Ephraim H669 shall return H7725 to Egypt, H4714 and they shall eat H398 unclean H2931 things in Assyria. H804
4 They shall not H3808 offer H5258 wine H3196 offerings to the LORD, H3068 neither H3808 shall they be pleasing H6149 unto him : their sacrifices H2077 shall be unto them as the bread H3899 of mourners; H205 all H3605 that eat H398 thereof shall be polluted: H2930 for H3588 their bread H3899 for their soul H5315 shall not H3808 come into H935 the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068
5 What H4100 will ye do H6213 in the solemn H4150 day, H3117 and in the day H3117 of the feast H2282 of the LORD H3068 ?
6 For H3588 , lo, H2009 they are gone H1980 because of destruction H4480 H7701 : Egypt H4714 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 shall be in their tabernacles. H168
7 The days H3117 of visitation H6486 are come, H935 the days H3117 of recompense H7966 are come; H935 Israel H3478 shall know H3045 it : the prophet H5030 is a fool, H191 the spiritual H7307 man H376 is mad, H7696 for H5921 the multitude H7230 of thine iniquity, H5771 and the great H7227 hatred. H4895
8 The watchman H6822 of Ephraim H669 was with H5973 my God: H430 but the prophet H5030 is a snare H6341 of a fowler H3352 in H5921 all H3605 his ways, H1870 and hatred H4895 in the house H1004 of his God. H430
9 They have deeply H6009 corrupted H7843 themselves , as in the days H3117 of Gibeah: H1390 therefore he will remember H2142 their iniquity, H5771 he will visit H6485 their sins. H2403
10 I found H4672 Israel H3478 like grapes H6025 in the wilderness; H4057 I saw H7200 your fathers H1 as the firstripe H1063 in the fig tree H8384 at her first time: H7225 but they H1992 went H935 to Baal- H1187 peor , and separated themselves H5144 unto that shame; H1322 and their abominations H8251 were H1961 according as they loved. H157
11 As for Ephraim, H669 their glory H3519 shall fly away H5774 like a bird, H5775 from the birth H4480 H3205 , and from the womb H4480 H990 , and from the conception H4480 H2032 .
12 Though H3588 H518 they bring up H1431 H853 their children, H1121 yet will I bereave H7921 them, that there shall not be a man H4480 H120 left : yea, H3588 woe H188 also H1571 to them when I depart H5493 from H4480 them!
13 Ephraim H669 , as H834 I saw H7200 Tyrus, H6865 is planted H8362 in a pleasant place: H5116 but Ephraim H669 shall bring forth H3318 his children H1121 to H413 the murderer. H2026
14 Give H5414 them , O LORD: H3068 what H4100 wilt thou give H5414 ? give H5414 them a miscarrying H7921 womb H7358 and dry H6784 breasts. H7699
15 All H3605 their wickedness H7451 is in Gilgal: H1537 for H3588 there H8033 I hated H8130 them: for H5921 the wickedness H7455 of their doings H4611 I will drive them out H1644 of mine house H4480 H1004 , I will love H157 them no H3808 more: H3254 all H3605 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 yea, H1571 though H3588 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 they did not H3808 hearken H8085 unto him : and they shall be H1961 wanderers H5074 among the nations. H1471
