Hosea 9:7-9
Christian Standard Bible
7 The days of punishment have come;(A)
the days of retribution have come.(B)
Let Israel recognize it!
The prophet is a fool,(C)
and the inspired man is insane,(D)
because of the magnitude
of your iniquity and hostility.(E)
8 Ephraim’s watchman is with my God.
Yet the prophet encounters a bird trap
on all his pathways.(F)
Hostility is in the house of his God!
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves(G)
as in the days of Gibeah.(H)
He will remember their iniquity;
he will punish their sins.(I)
Hosea 9:7-9
New International Version
7 The days of punishment(A) are coming,
the days of reckoning(B) are at hand.
Let Israel know this.
Because your sins(C) are so many
and your hostility so great,
the prophet is considered a fool,(D)
the inspired person a maniac.(E)
8 The prophet, along with my God,
is the watchman over Ephraim,[a]
yet snares(F) await him on all his paths,
and hostility in the house of his God.(G)
9 They have sunk deep into corruption,(H)
as in the days of Gibeah.(I)
God will remember(J) their wickedness
and punish them for their sins.(K)
