Hosea 7:9 in Context — Hosea 7

7 Todos eles se aquecem como um forno, e devoraram os seus juízes; todos os seus reis caem; ninguém há entre eles que clame a mim.

8 Efraim se mistura com os povos; Efraim é um bolo que não foi virado.

9 Estrangeiros devoram sua riqueza, sem que ele perceba; e até o cabelo grisalho se espalha por ele, e ele não percebeu.

10 A soberba de Israel dá testemunho contra ele, porém não se convertem ao SENHOR seu Deus, nem o buscam, apesar de tudo isto.

11 E foi Efraim como pomba imprudente, sem inteligência; chamam ao Egito, vão à Assíria.
