Hosea 7:8-10
Christian Standard Bible
8 Ephraim has allowed himself to get mixed up with the nations.
Ephraim is unturned bread baked on a griddle.
9 Foreigners consume his strength,(A)
but he does not notice.(B)
Even his hair is streaked with gray,
but he does not notice.
10 Israel’s arrogance testifies against them,[a](C)
yet they do not return to the Lord their God,(D)
and for all this, they do not seek him.
