Hosea 8:7-8
English Standard Version

7 For (A)they sow the wind,
    and they shall reap the whirlwind.
The standing grain has no heads;
    it shall yield no flour;
if it were to yield,
    (B)strangers would devour it.
8 (C)Israel is swallowed up;
    already they are among the nations
    as (D)a useless vessel.
