Hosea 9

1 May not you rejoice O Israel - to rejoicing like the peoples for you have prostituted yourself from with God your you have loved [the] hire of a prostitute on all threshing floors of grain.

Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as [other] people: for thou hast apostatized from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every corn-floor.

2 Threshing floor and wine-press not it will feed them and new wine it will fail it.

The floor and the wine-press shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her.

3 Not they will remain in [the] land of Yahweh and he will return Ephraim Egypt and in Assyria unclean [food] they will eat.

They shall not dwell in the LORD'S land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean [things] in Assyria.

4 Not they will pour out to Yahweh - wine and not they will be pleasing to him sacrifices their [will be] like bread of mourning to them all [those who] eat it they will make themselves unclean for bread their [will be] for self their not it will go [the] house of Yahweh.

They shall not offer wine -[offerings] to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing to him: their sacrifices [shall be] to them as the bread of mourners; all that eat of it shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.

5 What? will you do to [the] day of an appointed feast and to [the] day of [the] festival of Yahweh.

What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?

6 For there! they have gone from [the] devastation Egypt it will gather them Memphis it will bury them treasure of silver their nettle[s] it will take possession of them thorn[s] [will be] in tents their.

For lo, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant [places] for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns [shall be] in their tabernacles.

7 They have come - [the] days of punishment they have come [the] days of retribution let them know Israel [is] a fool the prophet [is] mad [the] person of the spirit on [the] greatness of iniquity your and great animosity.

The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come; Israel shall know [it]: the prophet [is] a fool, the spiritual man [is] mad, for the multitude of thy iniquity, and the great hatred.

8 [was] a watchman Ephraim with God my a prophet a trap of a fowler [is] on all ways his animosity [is] in [the] house of God his.

The watchman of Ephraim [was] with my God: [but] the prophet [is] a snare of a fowler in all his ways, [and] hatred in the house of his God.

9 They have made deep they have dealt corruptly like [the] days of Gibeah he will remember iniquity their he will punish sins their.

They have deeply corrupted [themselves], as in the days of Gibeah: [therefore] he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.

10 Like grapes in the wilderness I found Israel like early fig[s] on a fig tree at beginning its I saw ancestors your they they came Baal Peor and they devoted themselves to shame and they were detestable things as loved they.

I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig-tree at her first time: [but] they went to Baal-peor, and separated themselves to [that] shame; and [their] abominations were according as they loved.

11 Ephraim like bird it will fly away glory their from child bearing and from womb and from conception.

[As for] Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.

12 That except they will bring up children their and I will bereave them from everyone for also woe! to them when depart I from them.

Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, [that there shall] not [be] a man [left]: yes, woe also to them when I depart from them!

13 Ephraim just as I have seen to Tyre [is] planted in pastureland and Ephraim to bring out to [one who] kills children his.

Ephraim, as I saw Tyre, [is] planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer.

14 Give to them O Yahweh what? will you give give to them a womb [which] miscarry and breasts [which] dry up.

Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

15 All wickedness their [is] in Gilgal for there I hated them on [the] wickedness of deeds their from house my I will drive out them not I will repeat to love them all leaders their [are] rebellious.

All their wickedness [is] in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of my house, I will love them no more: all their princes [are] revolters.

16 He has been struck Ephraim root their it has dried up fruit (not *Q(K)*) they will produce! also if they [masc] will give birth! and I will put to death [the] precious things of [masc] womb their.

Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yes, though they bring forth, yet will I slay [even] the beloved [fruit] of their womb.

17 He will reject them God my for not they have listened to him so they may be wanderers among the nations.

My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
