Hosea 9:8 in Context — Hosea 9
6 Porque eis que eles vão embora por causa da destruição; o Egito os recolherá, Mênfis os sepultará; urtigas herdarão sua prata, espinhos [crescerão] em suas tendas.
7 Chegaram os dias da punição, chegaram os dias da retribuição; os israelitas saberão; o profeta é [considerado] louco, o homem espiritual [é visto como] tolo, por causa da grandeza de tua maldade e do grande ódio.
8 O profeta é um guarda de Efraim para meu Deus; [mas para ele há] laços de caçador em todos os seus caminhos, e ódio na casa de seu Deus.
9 Corromperam-se profundamente, como nos dias de Gibeá: [Deus] se lembrará de suas perversidades, seus pecados punirá.
10 Eu achei a Israel como uvas no deserto; eu vi a vossos pais como a primeira fruta da figueira em seu princípio. [Porém] eles foram a Baal-Peor, dedicaram-se a esta vergonha, e se tornaram tão abomináveis quanto aquilo que amaram.
