Hosea 7:9-16 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knew it not: yea, grey hairs also are spread about upon him, and he is ignorant of it.

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knew it not: yea, grey hairs also are spread about upon him, and he is ignorant of it. ¹⁰ And the pride of Israel shall be humbled before his face: and they have not returned to the Lord their God, nor have they sought him in all these. ¹¹ And Ephraim is become as a dove that is decoyed, not having a heart: they called upon Egypt, they went to the Assyrians. ¹² And when they shall go, I will spread my net upon them: I will bring them down as the fowl of the air, I will strike them as their congregation hath heard. ¹³ Woe to them, for they have departed from me: they shall be wasted because they have transgressed against me: and I redeemed them: and they have spoken lies against me. ¹⁴ And they have not cried to me with their heart, but they howled in their beds: they have thought upon wheat and wine, they are departed from me. ¹⁵ And I have chastised them, and strengthened their arms: and they have imagined evil against me. ¹⁶ They returned, that they might be without yoke: they became like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword, for the rage of their tongue. This is their derision in the land of Egypt.
