Hosea 9:3-5
Legacy Standard Bible
3 They will not remain in (A)the land of Yahweh,
But Ephraim will return to (B)Egypt,
And in (C)Assyria they will eat (D)unclean food.
4 They will not pour out drink offerings of (E)wine to Yahweh;
(F)Their sacrifices will not please Him.
Their bread will [a]be like [b]mourners’ bread;
All who eat of it will be (G)defiled,
For their bread will be for [c]themselves alone;
It will not enter the house of Yahweh.
5 (H)What will you do on the day of the appointed festival
And on the day of the (I)feast of Yahweh?
Hosea 9:3-5
Lexham English Bible
3 They will not remain
in the land of Yahweh.
But Ephraim will return to Egypt,
and in Assyria they will eat unclean food.
4 They will not pour drink offerings of wine to Yahweh,
and their sacrifices will not please him.
They are like mourners’ bread for them;
all those who eat it will be defiled.
For their bread will be for their hunger;[a]
it will not come to the house of Yahweh.
5 What will you do on the day of the appointed time,
and on the day of the festival of Yahweh?
