HO-9:1 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.
HO-9:2 The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the
new wine shall fail in her.
HO-9:3 They shall not dwell in the LORD'S land; but Ephraim
shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean [things] in
Assyria.
HO-9:4 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.
HO-9:5 What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the
feast of the LORD?
HO-9:6 For, lo, they are gone because of destruction: 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.
HO-9:7 The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense
are come; Israel shall know [it]: the prophet [is] a fool, the
spiritual man [is] mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity, and
the great hatred.
HO-9:8 The watchman of Ephraim [was] with my God: [but] the
prophet [is] a snare of a fowler in all his ways, [and] hatred
in the house of his God.
HO-9:9 They have deeply corrupted [themselves], as in the days
of Gibeah: [therefore] he will remember their iniquity, he will
visit their sins.
HO-9:10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your
fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first time:
[but] they went to Baalpeor, and separated themselves unto
[that] shame; and [their] abominations were according as they
loved.
HO-9:11 [As for] Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird,
from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.
HO-9:12 Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave
them, [that there shall] not [be] a man [left]: yea, woe also to
them when I depart from them!
HO-9:13 Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, [is] planted in a pleasant
place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the
murderer.
HO-9:14 Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a
miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
HO-9:15 All their wickedness [is] in Gilgal: for there I hated
them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out
of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes [are]
revolters.
HO-9:16 Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall
bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay
[even] the beloved [fruit] of their womb.
HO-9:17 My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken
unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
