Hosea 9:8

Ephraim Faces Punishment

⁷ Come in have the days of inspection, Come in have the days of recompence, Israel doth know! a fool is the prophet, Mad is the man of the Spirit, Because of the abundance of thine iniquity, And great is the hatred. ⁸ Ephraim is looking away from My God, The prophet! a snare of a fowler is over all his ways, Hatred is in the house of his God. ⁹ They have gone deep -- have done corruptly, As in the days of Gibeah, He doth remember their iniquity, He doth inspect their sins.
