The Fertility Cultists Will Become Infertile
8:7 They sow the wind , and so they will reap the whirlwind ! The stalk does not have any standing grain ; it will not produce any flour . Even if it were to yield grain, foreigners would swallow it all up.
8:8 Israel will be swallowed up among the nations ; they will be like a worthless piece of pottery .
