Hosea 7:9-16

Geneva(i) 9 Strangers haue deuoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray heares are here and there vpon him, yet he knoweth not. 10 And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face, and they doe not returne to the Lord their God, nor seeke him for all this. 11 Ephraim also is like a doue deceiued, without heart: they call to Egypt: they go to Asshur. 12 But when they shall go, I will spred my net vpon them, and drawe them downe as the foules of the heauen: I will chastice them as their congregation hath heard. 13 Wo vnto them: for they haue fled away from me: destruction shalbe vnto them, because they haue transgressed against me: though I haue redeemed them, yet they haue spoken lyes against me. 14 And they haue not cryed vnto me with their hearts, when they houled vpon their beds: they assembled themselues for corne, and wine, and they rebell against me. 15 Though I haue boud and strengthened their arme, yet doe they imagine mischiefe against me. 16 They returne, but not to the most high: they are like a deceitfull bowe: their princes shall fall by the sword, for the rage of their tongues: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
