Hosea 8:9

EfraimAssyria
Dom og rettferdig straff

7 For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind. There is no standing grain; what sprouts fails to yield flour. Even if it should produce, the foreigners would swallow it up.

8 Israel is swallowed up! Now they are among the nations like a worthless vessel.

For they have gone up to Assyria like a wild donkey on its own. Ephraim has hired lovers.

10 Though they hire allies among the nations, I will now round them up, and they will begin to diminish under the oppression of the king of princes.

11 Though Ephraim multiplied the altars for sin, they became his altars for sinning.
