Hosea 9:1-3

EasyEnglish Bible

9 People of Israel, do not shout with joy,
as the people of other nations do at their festivals.
You have not been faithful to me, your God.
Like a prostitute, you sell yourselves to foreign gods
that you worship on the threshing floors.
² But the threshing floors will not provide enough grain to feed the people.
The winepresses will not give them enough new wine.
³ The Israelites will not remain in the Lord's land.
They will have to return to Egypt.
In Assyria, they will have to eat food that is unclean.
