Hosea 9:3
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
They will not remain in the land of the LORD; Ephraim will return to Egypt and eat unclean food in Assyria.
In context
1 Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation like the nations, for you have played the harlot against your God; you have made love for hire on every threshing floor.
2 The threshing floor and winepress will not feed them, and the new wine will fail them.
3 They will not remain in the land of the LORD; Ephraim will return to Egypt and eat unclean food in Assyria.
4 They will not pour out wine offerings to the LORD, and their sacrifices will not please Him, but will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat will be defiled. For their bread will be for themselves; it will not enter the house of the LORD.
5 What will you do on the appointed day, on the day of the LORD’s feast?
