Hosea 9:9-10
Christian Standard Bible
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves(A)
as in the days of Gibeah.(B)
He will remember their iniquity;
he will punish their sins.(C)
Ephraim Bereaved of Offspring
10 I discovered Israel
like grapes in the wilderness.(D)
I saw your ancestors
like the first fruit of the fig tree in its first season.(E)
But they went to Baal-peor,(F)
consecrated themselves to Shame,[a](G)
and became abhorrent,(H)
like the thing they loved.

Hosea 9:9-10
International Standard Version
9 They have corrupted themselves deeply,
as did Gibeah[a] in its day.
Therefore God[b] will remember their lawlessness,
and he will pay them back for their sins.
10 “I found Israel,
as one finds[c] grapes in the wilderness;
Your ancestors seemed to me like the fruit
gleaned from a fig tree’s first harvest.
When they went to Baal-peor,[d]
they devoted themselves to that filth,
and they became loathsome,
like what they loved.
