Hosea 9:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 They will not remain in (A)the Lord’s land,
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 the Lord,
(F)Nor will [a]their sacrifices please Him.
Their bread will be to them like [b]mourners’ bread;
All who eat it will be (G)defiled,
Because their bread will be for [c]themselves alone;
It will not enter the house of the Lord.
5 (H)What will you do on the day of the appointed festival
And on the day of the (I)feast of the Lord?
Hosea 9:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 They will not stay in the land of the Lord.
Instead, Ephraim will return to Egypt,(A)
and they will eat unclean food(B) in Assyria.(C)
4 They will not pour out
their wine offerings to the Lord,(D)
and their sacrifices will not please Him.
Their food will be like the bread of mourners;
all who eat it become defiled.(E)
For their bread will be for their appetites alone;
it will not enter the house of the Lord.
5 What will you do on a festival day,(F)
on the day of the Lord’s feast?(G)
