Hosea 7:8-10
World English Bible
8 Ephraim, he mixes himself among the nations.
Ephraim is a pancake not turned over.
9 Strangers have devoured his strength,
and he doesn’t realize it.
Indeed, gray hairs are here and there on him,
and he doesn’t realize it.
10 The pride of Israel testifies to his face;
yet they haven’t returned to Yahweh their God,
nor sought him, for all this.
Hosea 7:8-10
International Standard Version
8 “Ephraim compromises with[a] the nations;
he’s a half-baked cake.[b]
9 Foreigners have consumed his strength,
and he hasn’t noticed.
Furthermore, his head is sprinkled with gray hair,
but he doesn’t realize it.
10 Israel’s arrogance testifies against him;[c]
but they do not return to the Lord their God,
nor seek him in all of this.
