Hosea 9:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ What will you do on the appointed day,
    and on the day of the festival of the Lord?
⁶ For indeed they are gone because of destruction.
    Egypt will gather them,
    and Memphis will bury them.
Nettles will possess their pleasant things of silver,
    and thorns will be in their tents.
⁷ The days of punishment have come;
    the days of recompense have come.
    Israel knows!
The prophet is a fool;
    the man of the spirit is insane,
because of your great iniquity and great hatred.
