Contemporary English Version
Hosea 7:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 They don't seem to realize
how weak and feeble they are;
their hair has turned gray,
while foreigners rule.
10 I am the Lord, their God,
but in all of their troubles
their pride keeps them
from returning to me.
No Help from Foreign Nations
The Lord said:
11 Israel[a] is a senseless bird,
fluttering back and forth
between Egypt and Assyria.
