Hosea 9:7-8
Christian Standard Bible
7 The days of punishment have come;(A)
the days of retribution have come.(B)
Let Israel recognize it!
The prophet is a fool,(C)
and the inspired man is insane,(D)
because of the magnitude
of your iniquity and hostility.(E)
8 Ephraim’s watchman is with my God.
Yet the prophet encounters a bird trap
on all his pathways.(F)
Hostility is in the house of his God!
Hosea 9:7-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 The days of punishment have come;
the days of recompense have come.
Israel will cry out,[a]
“The prophet is a fool;
the man of the spirit is mad!”
Because of your great iniquity,
your hostility is great.(A)
8 The prophet is a sentinel for my God over Ephraim,
yet a hunter’s snare is on all his ways
and hostility in the house of his God.(B)
