Princes have polluted themselves with the poison of wine, He hath drawn out his hand with scorners. 6For they have drawn near, As an oven is their heart, In their lying in wait all the night sleep doth their baker, Morning! he is burning as a flaming fire. 7All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling unto Me among them. 8Ephraim! among peoples he mixeth himself, Ephraim hath been a cake unturned. 9Devoured have strangers his power, And he hath not known, Also old age hath sprinkled itself on him, And he hath not known. 10And humbled hath been the excellency of Israel to his face, And they have not turned back unto Jehovah their God, Nor have they sought Him for all this. 11And Ephraim is as a simple dove without heart, Egypt they called on-- to Asshur they have gone. 12When they go I spread over them My net, As the fowl of the heavens I bring them down, I chastise them as their company hath heard. 13Woe to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I--I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me, 14And have not cried unto Me with their heart, but howl on their beds, For corn and new wine they assemble themselves, They turn aside against Me. 15And I instructed--I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil! 16They turn back--not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Fall by sword do their princes, From the insolence of their tongue, This is their derision in the land of Egypt! ‹Previous chapterHosea 6Next chapterHosea 8›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsHosea 7 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
