Hosea 5:1

5:1

Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye this, O priests
<03548>_;

and hearken
<07181> (8685)_,

ye house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>_;

and give ye ear
<0238> (8685)_,

O house
<01004>

of the king
<04428>_;

for judgment
<04941>

[is] toward you, because ye have been a snare
<06341>

on Mizpah
<04709>_,

and a net
<07568>

spread
<06566> (8803)

upon Tabor
<08396>_.

Hosea 7:1--8:14

7:1

When I would have healed
<07495> (8800)

Israel
<03478>_,

then the iniquity
<05771>

of Ephraim
<0669>

was discovered
<01540> (8738)_,

and the wickedness
<07451>

of Samaria
<08111>_:

for they commit
<06466> (8804)

falsehood
<08267>_;

and the thief
<01590>

cometh in
<0935> (8799)_,

[and] the troop
<01416>

of robbers spoileth
<06584> (8804)

without
<02351>_.

{wickedness: Heb. evils} {spoileth: Heb. strippeth}

7:2

And they consider
<0559> (8799)

not in their hearts
<03824>

[that] I remember
<02142> (8804)

all their wickedness
<07451>_:

now their own doings
<04611>

have beset them about
<05437> (8804)_;

they are before my face
<06440>_.

{consider...: Heb. say not to}

7:3

They make the king
<04428>

glad
<08055> (8762)

with their wickedness
<07451>_,

and the princes
<08269>

with their lies
<03585>_.

7:4

They [are] all adulterers
<05003> (8764)_,

as an oven
<08574>

heated
<01197> (8802)

by the baker
<0644> (8802)_,

[who] ceaseth
<07673> (8799)

from raising
<05782> (8800)

after he hath kneaded
<03888> (8800)

the dough
<01217>_,

until it be leavened
<02556> (8800)_.

{who...: or, the raiser will cease} {raising: or, waking}

7:5

In the day
<03117>

of our king
<04428>

the princes
<08269>

have made [him] sick
<02470> (8689)

with bottles
<02534>

of wine
<03196>_;

he stretched out
<04900> (8804)

his hand
<03027>

with scorners
<03945> (8802)_.

{bottles...: or, heat through wine}

7:6

For they have made ready
<07126> (8765)

their heart
<03820>

like an oven
<08574>_,

whiles they lie in wait
<0693> (8800)_:

their baker
<0644> (8802)

sleepeth
<03463>

all the night
<03915>_;

in the morning
<01242>

it burneth
<01197> (8802)

as a flaming
<03852>

fire
<0784>_.

{made...: or, applied}

7:7

They are all hot
<02552> (8735)

as an oven
<08574>_,

and have devoured
<0398> (8804)

their judges
<08199> (8802)_;

all their kings
<04428>

are fallen
<05307> (8804)_:

[there is] none among them that calleth
<07121> (8802)

unto me.

7:8

Ephraim
<0669>_,

he hath mixed
<01101> (8704)

himself among the people
<05971>_;

Ephraim
<0669>

is a cake
<05692>

not turned
<02015> (8803)_.

7:9

Strangers
<02114> (8801)

have devoured
<0398> (8804)

his strength
<03581>_,

and he knoweth
<03045> (8804)

[it] not: yea, gray hairs
<07872>

are here and there
<02236> (8804)

upon him, yet he knoweth
<03045> (8804)

not. {here...: Heb. sprinkled}

7:10

And the pride
<01347>

of Israel
<03478>

testifieth
<06030> (8804)

to his face
<06440>_:

and they do not return
<07725> (8804)

to the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>_,

nor seek
<01245> (8765)

him for all this.

7:11

Ephraim
<0669>

also is like a silly
<06601> (8802)

dove
<03123>

without heart
<03820>_:

they call
<07121> (8804)

to Egypt
<04714>_,

they go
<01980> (8804)

to Assyria
<0804>_.

7:12

When they shall go
<03212> (8799)_,

I will spread
<06566> (8799)

my net
<07568>

upon them; I will bring them down
<03381> (8686)

as the fowls
<05775>

of the heaven
<08064>_;

I will chastise
<03256> (8686)

them, as their congregation
<05712>

hath heard
<08088>_.

7:13

Woe
<0188>

unto them! for they have fled
<05074> (8804)

from me: destruction
<07701>

unto them! because they have transgressed
<06586> (8804)

against me: though I have redeemed
<06299> (8799)

them, yet they have spoken
<01696> (8765)

lies
<03577>

against me. {destruction: Heb. spoil}

7:14

And they have not cried
<02199> (8804)

unto me with their heart
<03820>_,

when they howled
<03213> (8686)

upon their beds
<04904>_:

they assemble
<01481> (8709)

themselves for corn
<01715>

and wine
<08492>_,

[and] they rebel
<05493> (8799)

against me.

7:15

Though I have bound
<03256> (8765)

[and] strengthened
<02388> (8765)

their arms
<02220>_,

yet do they imagine
<02803> (8762)

mischief
<07451>

against me. {have...: or, chastened}

7:16

They return
<07725> (8799)_,

[but] not to the most High
<05920>_:

they are like a deceitful
<07423>

bow
<07198>_:

their princes
<08269>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>

for the rage
<02195>

of their tongue
<03956>_:

this
<02097>

[shall be] their derision
<03933>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

8:1

[Set] the trumpet
<07782>

to thy mouth
<02441>_.

[He shall come] as an eagle
<05404>

against the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

because they have transgressed
<05674> (8804)

my covenant
<01285>_,

and trespassed
<06586> (8804)

against my law
<08451>_.

{thy: Heb. the roof of thy}

8:2

Israel
<03478>

shall cry
<02199> (8799)

unto me, My God
<0430>_,

we know
<03045> (8804)

thee.

8:3

Israel
<03478>

hath cast off
<02186> (8804)

[the thing that is] good
<02896>_:

the enemy
<0341> (8802)

shall pursue
<07291> (8799)

him.

8:4

They have set up kings
<04427> (8689)_,

but not by me: they have made princes
<07786> (8689)_,

and I knew
<03045> (8804)

[it] not: of their silver
<03701>

and their gold
<02091>

have they made
<06213> (8804)

them idols
<06091>_,

that they may be cut off
<03772> (8735)_.

8:5

Thy calf
<05695>_,

O Samaria
<08111>_,

hath cast
<02186> (8804)

[thee] off; mine anger
<0639>

is kindled
<02734> (8804)

against them: how long [will it be] ere
<03808>

they attain
<03201> (8799)

to innocency
<05356>_?

8:6

For from Israel
<03478>

[was] it also: the workman
<02796>

made
<06213> (8804)

it; therefore it [is] not God
<0430>_:

but the calf
<05695>

of Samaria
<08111>

shall be broken in pieces
<07616>_.

8:7

For they have sown
<02232> (8799)

the wind
<07307>_,

and they shall reap
<07114> (8799)

the whirlwind
<05492>_:

it hath no stalk
<07054>_:

the bud
<06780>

shall yield
<06213> (8799)

no meal
<07058>_:

if
<0194>

so be it yield
<06213> (8799)_,

the strangers
<02114> (8801)

shall swallow it up
<01104> (8799)_.

{stalk: or, standing corn}

8:8

Israel
<03478>

is swallowed up
<01104> (8738)_:

now shall they be among the Gentiles
<01471>

as a vessel
<03627>

wherein [is] no pleasure
<02656>_.

8:9

For they are gone up
<05927> (8804)

to Assyria
<0804>_,

a wild ass
<06501>

alone
<0909> (8802)

by himself: Ephraim
<0669>

hath hired
<08566> (8689)

lovers
<0158>_.

{lovers: Heb. loves}

8:10

Yea, though they have hired
<08566> (8799)

among the nations
<01471>_,

now will I gather
<06908> (8762)

them, and they shall sorrow
<02490> (8686)

a little
<04592>

for the burden
<04853>

of the king
<04428>

of princes
<08269>_.

{sorrow: or, begin} {a...: or, in a little while}

8:11

Because Ephraim
<0669>

hath made many
<07235> (8689)

altars
<04196>

to sin
<02398> (8800)_,

altars
<04196>

shall be unto him to sin
<02398> (8800)_.

8:12

I have written
<03789> (8799)

to him the great things
<07230> (8675) <07239>

of my law
<08451>_,

[but] they were counted
<02803> (8738)

as a strange thing
<02114> (8801)_.

8:13

They sacrifice
<02076> (8799)

flesh
<01320>

[for] the sacrifices
<02077>

of mine offerings
<01890>_,

and eat
<0398> (8799)

[it; but] the LORD
<03068>

accepteth
<07521> (8804)

them not; now will he remember
<02142> (8799)

their iniquity
<05771>_,

and visit
<06485> (8799)

their sins
<02403>_:

they shall return
<07725> (8799)

to Egypt
<04714>_.

{They sacrifice...: or, In the sacrifices of mine offerings they, etc}

8:14

For Israel
<03478>

hath forgotten
<07911> (8799)

his Maker
<06213> (8802)_,

and buildeth
<01129> (8799)

temples
<01964>_;

and Judah
<03063>

hath multiplied
<07235> (8689)

fenced
<01219> (8803)

cities
<05892>_:

but I will send
<07971> (8765)

a fire
<0784>

upon his cities
<05892>_,

and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

thereof.
