Hosea 8:9-10
World English Bible
9 For they have gone up to Assyria,
like a wild donkey wandering alone.
Ephraim has hired lovers for himself.
10 But although they sold themselves among the nations,
I will now gather them;
and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.
Hosea 8:9-10
American Standard Version
9 For they are gone up to Assyria, like a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired [a]lovers. 10 Yea, though they hire among the nations, now will I gather them; and they [b]begin to be diminished by reason of the burden of the king of princes.
