Hosea 9

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 9 of 14

¹ O Israel, do not rejoice for joy, like the peoples. For you have fornicated away from your God. You have loved hire on all threshing-floors of grain.

² The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her.

³ They shall not live in the land of Jehovah, but Ephraim shall turn back to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things in Assyria.
