Hosea 8:6-8
Christian Standard Bible
6 For this thing is from Israel—
a craftsman made it,(A) and it is not God.
The calf of Samaria will be smashed to bits!
7 Indeed, they sow the wind(B)
and reap the whirlwind.(C)
There is no standing grain;
what sprouts fails to yield flour.(D)
Even if they did,
foreigners would swallow it up.
8 Israel is swallowed up!(E)
Now they are among the nations
like discarded pottery.(F)
Hosea 8:6-8
New King James Version
6 For from Israel is even this:
A (A)workman made it, and it is not God;
But the calf of Samaria shall be broken to pieces.
7 “They(B) sow the wind,
And reap the whirlwind.
The stalk has no bud;
It shall never produce meal.
If it should produce,
(C)Aliens would swallow it up.
8 (D)Israel is swallowed up;
Now they are among the Gentiles
(E)Like a vessel in which is no pleasure.
