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.

9 For they have gone up to (A)Assyria,
Like (B)a wild donkey all alone;
Ephraim has (C)paid fees for [a]lovers.
10 Even though they [b]pay for allies among the nations,
I will (D)gather them up now;
And they will begin (E)to diminish
Because of the burden of the (F)king of officials.
