Hosea 9 : 14 - 10 : 2
14 | Give them, O LORD--What will You give? Give them a miscarrying womb And dry breasts! |
15 | "All their wickedness is in Gilgal, For there I hated them. Because of the evil of their deeds I will drive them from My house; I will love them no more. All their princes are rebellious. |
16 | Ephraim is stricken, Their root is dried up; They shall bear no fruit. Yes, were they to bear children, I would kill the darlings of their womb." |
17 | My God will cast them away, Because they did not obey Him; And they shall be wanderers among the nations. |
1 | Israel empties his vine; He brings forth fruit for himself. According to the multitude of his fruit He has increased the altars; According to the bounty of his land They have embellished his sacred pillars. |
2 | Their heart is divided; Now they are held guilty. He will break down their altars; He will ruin their sacred pillars. |
