Hosea 9:4 in Context — Hosea 9
2 L’aire et le pressoir ne les nourriront pas, Et le moût leur fera défaut.
3 Ils ne resteront pas dans le pays de l’Éternel; Éphraïm retournera en Égypte, Et ils mangeront en Assyrie des aliments impurs.
4 Ils ne feront pas à l’Éternel des libations de vin: Elles ne lui seraient point agréables. Leurs sacrifices seront pour eux comme un pain de deuil; Tous ceux qui en mangeront se rendront impurs; Car leur pain ne sera que pour eux, Il n’entrera point dans la maison de l’Éternel.
5 Que ferez-vous aux jours solennels, Aux jours des fêtes de l’Éternel?
6 Car voici, ils partent à cause de la dévastation; L’Égypte les recueillera, Moph leur donnera des sépulcres; Ce qu’ils ont de précieux, leur argent, sera la proie des ronces, Et les épines croîtront dans leurs tentes.
