Hosea 8:9-10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 For they have gone up to Assyria(A)
like a wild donkey going off on its own.
Ephraim has paid for love.(B)
10 Even though they hire lovers among the nations,
I will now round them up,
and they will begin to decrease in number(C)
under the burden of the king and leaders.(D)
Hosea 8:9-10
International Standard Version
9 “Because they went over to Assyria,
they are like a wild donkey alone by itself.
Ephraim has hired some lovers.
10 Even though they sold themselves to the nations,
I will gather them.
They will mourn for a while
for the burden they were to the king and princes.[a]
