Hosea 9:7-8
World English Bible
7 The days of visitation have come.
The days of reckoning have come.
Israel will consider the prophet to be a fool,
and the man who is inspired to be insane,
because of the abundance of your sins,
and because your hostility is great.
8 A prophet watches over Ephraim with my God.
A fowler’s snare is on all of his paths,
and hostility in the house of his God.
Hosea 9:7-8
New American Standard Bible
7 The days of (A)punishment have come,
The days of (B)retribution have come;
[a]Let Israel know this!
The prophet is a (C)fool,
The [b]inspired person is (D)insane,
Because of the grossness of your (E)wrongdoing,
And because your [c]hostility is so great.
8 Ephraim was a watchman with my God, a prophet;
Yet the snare of a bird catcher is in all his ways,
And there is only [d]hostility in the house of his God.
