For (A)they sow wind
And they harvest a (B)storm.
The standing grain has no [a]kernels;
It yields (C)no [b]grain.
If it were to yield, strangers would swallow it.

Israel has been (D)swallowed up;
They are now among the nations
Like a (E)vessel in which no one delights.

Notas al pie

  1. Hosea 8:7 Lit growth
  2. Hosea 8:7 Or meal

    already they are among the nations
    as a useless vessel.
