Hosea 9:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 What will you do on the day of appointed festival
and on the day of the festival of the Lord?(A)
6 For even if they escape destruction,
Egypt shall gather them;
Memphis shall bury them.
Nettles shall possess their precious things of silver;[a]
thorns shall be in their tents.(B)
7 The days of punishment have come;
the days of recompense have come.
Israel will cry out,[b]
“The prophet is a fool;
the man of the spirit is mad!”
Because of your great iniquity,
your hostility is great.(C)
