Hosea 9:1--11:7

9:1

Rejoice
<08055> (8799)

not, O Israel
<03478>_,

for joy
<01524>_,

as [other] people
<05971>_:

for thou hast gone a whoring
<02181> (8804)

from thy God
<0430>_,

thou hast loved
<0157> (8804)

a reward
<0868>

upon every cornfloor
<01637> <01715>_.

{upon: or, in, etc}

9:2

The floor
<01637>

and the winepress
<03342>

shall not feed
<07462> (8799)

them, and the new wine
<08492>

shall fail
<03584> (8762)

in her. {winepress: or, winefat}

9:3

They shall not dwell
<03427> (8799)

in the LORD'S
<03068>

land
<0776>_;

but Ephraim
<0669>

shall return
<07725> (8804)

to Egypt
<04714>_,

and they shall eat
<0398> (8799)

unclean
<02931>

[things] in Assyria
<0804>_.

9:4

They shall not offer
<05258> (8799)

wine
<03196>

[offerings] to the LORD
<03068>_,

neither shall they be pleasing
<06149> (8799)

unto him: their sacrifices
<02077>

[shall be] unto them as the bread
<03899>

of mourners
<0205>_;

all that eat
<0398> (8802)

thereof shall be polluted
<02930> (8691)_:

for their bread
<03899>

for their soul
<05315>

shall not come
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

9:5

What will ye do
<06213> (8799)

in the solemn
<04150>

day
<03117>_,

and in the day
<03117>

of the feast
<02282>

of the LORD
<03068>_?

9:6

For, lo, they are gone
<01980> (8804)

because of destruction
<07701>_:

Egypt
<04714>

shall gather them up
<06908> (8762)_,

Memphis
<04644>

shall bury
<06912> (8762)

them: the pleasant
<04261>

[places] for their silver
<03701>_,

nettles
<07057>

shall possess
<03423> (8799)

them: thorns
<02336>

[shall be] in their tabernacles
<0168>_.

{destruction: Heb. spoil} {the...: or, their silver shall be desired, the nettle, etc.: Heb. the desire}

9:7

The days
<03117>

of visitation
<06486>

are come
<0935> (8804)_,

the days
<03117>

of recompence
<07966>

are come
<0935> (8804)_;

Israel
<03478>

shall know
<03045> (8799)

[it]: the prophet
<05030>

[is] a fool
<0191>_,

the spiritual
<07307>

man
<0376>

[is] mad
<07696> (8794)_,

for the multitude
<07230>

of thine iniquity
<05771>_,

and the great
<07227>

hatred
<04895>_.

{spiritual...: Heb. man of the spirit}

9:8

The watchman
<06822> (8802)

of Ephraim
<0669>

[was] with my God
<0430>_:

[but] the prophet
<05030>

[is] a snare
<06341>

of a fowler
<03352>

in all his ways
<01870>_,

[and] hatred
<04895>

in the house
<01004>

of his God
<0430>_.

{in the: or, against the}

9:9

They have deeply
<06009> (8689)

corrupted
<07843> (8765)

[themselves], as in the days
<03117>

of Gibeah
<01390>_:

[therefore] he will remember
<02142> (8799)

their iniquity
<05771>_,

he will visit
<06485> (8799)

their sins
<02403>_.

9:10

I found
<04672> (8804)

Israel
<03478>

like grapes
<06025>

in the wilderness
<04057>_;

I saw
<07200> (8804)

your fathers
<01>

as the firstripe
<01063>

in the fig tree
<08384>

at her first time
<07225>_:

[but] they went
<0935> (8804)

to Baalpeor
<01187>_,

and separated
<05144> (8735)

themselves unto [that] shame
<01322>_;

and [their] abominations
<08251>

were according as they loved
<0157> (8800)_.

9:11

[As for] Ephraim
<0669>_,

their glory
<03519>

shall fly away
<05774> (8709)

like a bird
<05775>_,

from the birth
<03205> (8800)_,

and from the womb
<0990>_,

and from the conception
<02032>_.

9:12

Though they bring up
<01431> (8762)

their children
<01121>_,

yet will I bereave
<07921> (8765)

them, [that there shall] not [be] a man
<0120>

[left]: yea, woe
<0188>

also to them when I depart
<05493> (8800)

from them!

9:13

Ephraim
<0669>_,

as I saw
<07200> (8804)

Tyrus
<06865>_,

[is] planted
<08362> (8803)

in a pleasant place
<05116>_:

but Ephraim
<0669>

shall bring forth
<03318> (8687)

his children
<01121>

to the murderer
<02026> (8802)_.

9:14

Give
<05414> (8798)

them, O LORD
<03068>_:

what wilt thou give
<05414> (8799)_?

give
<05414> (8798)

them a miscarrying
<07921> (8688)

womb
<07358>

and dry
<06784> (8802)

breasts
<07699>_.

{miscarrying: Heb. that casteth the fruit}

9:15

All their wickedness
<07451>

[is] in Gilgal
<01537>_:

for there I hated
<08130> (8804)

them: for the wickedness
<07455>

of their doings
<04611>

I will drive them out
<01644> (8762)

of mine house
<01004>_,

I will love
<0160>

them no more
<03254> (8686)_:

all their princes
<08269>

[are] revolters
<05637> (8802)_.

9:16

Ephraim
<0669>

is smitten
<05221> (8717)_,

their root
<08328>

is dried up
<03001> (8804)_,

they shall bear
<06213> (8799)

no fruit
<06529>_:

yea, though they bring forth
<03205> (8799)_,

yet will I slay
<04191> (8689)

[even] the beloved
<04261>

[fruit] of their womb
<0990>_.

{the...: Heb. the desires}

9:17

My God
<0430>

will cast them away
<03988> (8799)_,

because they did not hearken
<08085> (8804)

unto him: and they shall be wanderers
<05074> (8802)

among the nations
<01471>_.

10:1

Israel
<03478>

[is] an empty
<01238> (8802)

vine
<01612>_,

he bringeth forth
<07737> (8762)

fruit
<06529>

unto himself: according to the multitude
<07230>

of his fruit
<06529>

he hath increased
<07235> (8689)

the altars
<04196>_;

according to the goodness
<02896>

of his land
<0776>

they have made goodly
<02895> (8689)

images
<04676>_.

{an...: or, a vine emptying the fruit which it giveth} {images: Heb. statues, or, standing images}

10:2

Their heart
<03820>

is divided
<02505> (8804)_;

now shall they be found faulty
<0816> (8799)_:

he shall break down
<06202> (8799)

their altars
<04196>_,

he shall spoil
<07703> (8779)

their images
<04676>_.

{Their heart...: or, He hath divided their heart} {break...: Heb. behead} {images: Heb. statues, or, standing images}

10:3

For now they shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

We have no king
<04428>_,

because we feared
<03372> (8804)

not the LORD
<03068>_;

what then should a king
<04428>

do
<06213> (8799)

to us?

10:4

They have spoken
<01696> (8765)

words
<01697>_,

swearing
<0422> (8800)

falsely
<07723>

in making
<03772> (8800)

a covenant
<01285>_:

thus judgment
<04941>

springeth up
<06524> (8804)

as hemlock
<07219>

in the furrows
<08525>

of the field
<07704>_.

10:5

The inhabitants
<07934>

of Samaria
<08111>

shall fear
<01481> (8799)

because of the calves
<05697>

of Bethaven
<01007>_:

for the people
<05971>

thereof shall mourn
<056> (8804)

over it, and the priests
<03649>

thereof [that] rejoiced
<01523> (8799)

on it, for the glory
<03519>

thereof, because it is departed
<01540> (8804)

from it. {the priests...: or, Chemarim}

10:6

It shall be also carried
<02986> (8714)

unto Assyria
<0804>

[for] a present
<04503>

to king
<04428>

Jareb
<03377>_:

Ephraim
<0669>

shall receive
<03947> (8799)

shame
<01317>_,

and Israel
<03478>

shall be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

of his own counsel
<06098>_.

10:7

[As for] Samaria
<08111>_,

her king
<04428>

is cut off
<01820> (8738)

as the foam
<07110>

upon
<06440>

the water
<04325>_.

{the water: Heb. the face of the water}

10:8

The high places
<01116>

also of Aven
<0206>_,

the sin
<02403>

of Israel
<03478>_,

shall be destroyed
<08045> (8738)_:

the thorn
<06975>

and the thistle
<01863>

shall come up
<05927> (8799)

on their altars
<04196>_;

and they shall say
<0559> (8804)

to the mountains
<02022>_,

Cover
<03680> (8761)

us; and to the hills
<01389>_,

Fall
<05307> (8798)

on us.

10:9

O Israel
<03478>_,

thou hast sinned
<02398> (8804)

from the days
<03117>

of Gibeah
<01390>_:

there they stood
<05975> (8804)_:

the battle
<04421>

in Gibeah
<01390>

against the children
<01121>

of iniquity
<05932>

did not overtake
<05381> (8686)

them.

10:10

[It is] in my desire
<0185>

that I should chastise
<03256> (8799)

them; and the people
<05971>

shall be gathered
<0622> (8795)

against them, when they shall bind
<0631> (8800)

themselves in their two
<08147>

furrows
<05869>_.

{when...: or, when I shall bind them for their two transgressions, or, in their two habitations}

10:11

And Ephraim
<0669>

[is as] an heifer
<05697>

[that is] taught
<03925> (8794)_,

[and] loveth
<0157> (8802)

to tread out
<01758> (8800)

[the corn]; but I passed over
<05674> (8804)

upon her fair
<02898>

neck
<06677>_:

I will make Ephraim
<0669>

to ride
<07392> (8686)_;

Judah
<03063>

shall plow
<02790> (8799)_,

[and] Jacob
<03290>

shall break his clods
<07702> (8762)_.

{her...: Heb. the beauty of her neck}

10:12

Sow
<02232> (8798)

to yourselves in righteousness
<06666>_,

reap
<07114> (8798)

in
<06310>

mercy
<02617>_;

break up
<05214> (8798)

your fallow ground
<05215>_:

for [it is] time
<06256>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_,

till he come
<0935> (8799)

and rain
<03384> (8686)

righteousness
<06664>

upon you.

10:13

Ye have plowed
<02790> (8804)

wickedness
<07562>_,

ye have reaped
<07114> (8804)

iniquity
<05766>_;

ye have eaten
<0398> (8804)

the fruit
<06529>

of lies
<03585>_:

because thou didst trust
<0982> (8804)

in thy way
<01870>_,

in the multitude
<07230>

of thy mighty men
<01368>_.

10:14

Therefore shall a tumult
<07588>

arise
<06965> (8804)

among thy people
<05971>_,

and all thy fortresses
<04013>

shall be spoiled
<07703> (8714)_,

as Shalman
<08020>

spoiled
<07701>

Betharbel
<01009>

in the day
<03117>

of battle
<04421>_:

the mother
<0517>

was dashed in pieces
<07376> (8795)

upon [her] children
<01121>_.

10:15

So
<03602>

shall Bethel
<01008>

do
<06213> (8804)

unto you because
<06440>

of your great
<07451>

wickedness
<07451>_:

in a morning
<07837>

shall the king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>

utterly
<01820> (8736)

be cut off
<01820> (8738)_.

{your...: Heb. the evil of your evil}

11:1

When Israel
<03478>

[was] a child
<05288>_,

then I loved
<0157> (8799)

him, and called
<07121> (8804)

my son
<01121>

out of Egypt
<04714>_.

11:2

[As] they called
<07121> (8804)

them, so they went
<01980> (8804)

from them
<06440>_:

they sacrificed
<02076> (8762)

unto Baalim
<01168>_,

and burned incense
<06999> (8762)

to graven images
<06456>_.

11:3

I taught
<08637> (0)

Ephraim
<0669>

also to go
<08637> (8809)_,

taking
<03947> (8800)

them by their arms
<02220>_;

but they knew
<03045> (8804)

not that I healed
<07495> (8804)

them.

11:4

I drew
<04900> (8799)

them with cords
<02256>

of a man
<0120>_,

with bands
<05688>

of love
<0160>_:

and I was to them as they that take off
<07311> (8688)

the yoke
<05923>

on their jaws
<03895>_,

and I laid
<05186> (8686)

meat
<0398> (8686)

unto them. {take off: Heb. lift up}

11:5

He shall not return
<07725> (8799)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

but the Assyrian
<0804>

shall be his king
<04428>_,

because they refused
<03985> (8765)

to return
<07725> (8800)_.

11:6

And the sword
<02719>

shall abide
<02342> (8804)

on his cities
<05892>_,

and shall consume
<03615> (8765)

his branches
<0905>_,

and devour
<0398> (8804)

[them], because of their own counsels
<04156>_.

11:7

And my people
<05971>

are bent
<08511> (8803)

to backsliding
<04878>

from me: though they called
<07121> (8799)

them to the most High
<05920>_,

none at all
<03162>

would exalt
<07311> (8787)

[him]. {none...: Heb. together they exalted not}
