Hosea 9:7-8
Authorized (King James) Version
7 The days of visitation are come,
the days of recompence are come;
Israel shall know it:
the prophet is a fool,
the spiritual man is mad,
for the multitude of thine iniquity,
and the great hatred.
8 The watchman of Ephraim was with my God:
but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways,
and hatred in the house of his God.
Hosea 9:7-8
American Standard Version
7 The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the man that hath the spirit is mad, for the abundance of thine iniquity, and because the enmity is great. 8 Ephraim [a]was a watchman with my God: as for the prophet, a fowler’s snare is in all his ways, and enmity in the house of his God.
