Hosea 9:9-10
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves
as in the days of Gibeah;
he will remember their iniquity;
he will punish their sins.(A)
10 Like grapes in the wilderness,
I found Israel.
Like the first fruit on the fig tree,
in its first season,
I saw your ancestors.
But they came to Baal-peor
and consecrated themselves to a thing of shame
and became detestable like the thing they loved.(B)
Hosea 9:9-10
International Standard Version
9 They have corrupted themselves deeply,
as did Gibeah[a] in its day.
Therefore God[b] will remember their lawlessness,
and he will pay them back for their sins.
10 “I found Israel,
as one finds[c] grapes in the wilderness;
Your ancestors seemed to me like the fruit
gleaned from a fig tree’s first harvest.
When they went to Baal-peor,[d]
they devoted themselves to that filth,
and they became loathsome,
like what they loved.
