Hosea 9:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
5 What will you do on the day of appointed festival,
and on the day of the festival of the Lord?
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.
7 The days of punishment have come,
the days of recompense have come;
Israel cries,[b]
“The prophet is a fool,
the man of the spirit is mad!”
Because of your great iniquity,
your hostility is great.

Hosea 9:5-7
New International Version
5 What will you do(A) on the day of your appointed festivals,(B)
on the feast days of the Lord?
6 Even if they escape from destruction,
Egypt will gather them,(C)
and Memphis(D) will bury them.(E)
Their treasures of silver(F) will be taken over by briers,
and thorns(G) will overrun their tents.
7 The days of punishment(H) are coming,
the days of reckoning(I) are at hand.
Let Israel know this.
Because your sins(J) are so many
and your hostility so great,
the prophet is considered a fool,(K)
the inspired person a maniac.(L)
