Hosea 9:4
New American Standard Bible
4 They will not pour out drink offerings of (A)wine to the Lord,
(B)Nor will [a]their sacrifices please Him.
Their bread will be to them like [b]mourners’ bread;
All who eat it will be (C)defiled,
Because their bread will be for [c]themselves alone;
It will not enter the house of the Lord.
