Hosea 7:9-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 Foreigners devour his strength,
but he does not know it;
gray hairs are sprinkled upon him,
but he does not know it.(A)
10 Israel’s pride testifies against[a] him;
yet they do not return to the Lord their God
or seek him, for all this.(B)
Futile Reliance on the Nations
11 Ephraim has become like a dove,
silly and without sense;
they call upon Egypt, they go to Assyria.(C)
