Hosea 9:3 in context

  1. 1Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, like the peoples; for thou hast played the harlot, departing from thy God; thou hast loved hire upon every grain-floor.
  2. 2The threshing-floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.
  3. 3They shall not dwell in Jehovah’s land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
  4. 4They shall not pour out wine- offerings to Jehovah, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted; for their bread shall be for their appetite; it shall not come into the house of Jehovah.
  5. 5What will ye do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?
