Hosea 9:4

Ephraim Faces Punishment

³ They shall not dwell in Jehovah's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and in Assyria shall they eat that which is unclean. ⁴ They shall pour out no offerings of wine to Jehovah, neither shall their sacrifices be pleasing unto him: they shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be defiled: for their bread shall be for themselves; it shall not come into the house of Jehovah. ⁵ What will ye do in the day of assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?
