Hosea 9:3-5
GOD’S WORD Translation
3 The people of Ephraim won’t stay in the Lord’s land.
They will return to Egypt,
and they will eat unclean [a] food in Assyria.
4 They won’t pour wine offerings to the Lord,
and their sacrifices won’t please him.
Their sacrifices will be like the food that mourners eat.
All who eat this food will be unclean.
Their food will only satisfy their hunger.
It will not be brought ⌞as an offering⌟ to the Lord’s temple.
5 What will they do on the day of an appointed festival
or on the Lord’s festival days?
