Hosea 9:2-4
Amplified Bible
2
The threshing floor and the wine press will no longer feed them,
And the new wine will fail them [because they failed to honor the God who provides].
3
They will not remain in the land of the Lord,
But Ephraim will return to [another] Egypt [in bondage]
And they will eat [ceremonially] unclean food in Assyria.(A)
4
They will not pour out drink offerings of wine to the Lord;
Their sacrifices will not please Him.
Their bread will be like mourners’ bread [eaten at funerals];
All who eat it will be [ceremonially] unclean,
For their bread will be for themselves;
It will not enter the house of the Lord [to be consecrated].
Hosea 9:2-4
New International Version
2 Threshing floors and winepresses will not feed the people;
the new wine(A) will fail them.
3 They will not remain(B) in the Lord’s land;
Ephraim will return to Egypt(C)
and eat unclean food in Assyria.(D)
4 They will not pour out wine offerings(E) to the Lord,
nor will their sacrifices please(F) him.
Such sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners;(G)
all who eat them will be unclean.(H)
This food will be for themselves;
it will not come into the temple of the Lord.(I)
