Hosea 12:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 A merchant who holds a false balance,
he loves to extort!
9 Ephraim has said,
“How rich I have become;
I have made a fortune!”(A)
All his gain will not suffice
for the guilt of his sin.
10 I the Lord have been your God,
since the land of Egypt;(B)
I will again have you live in tents,
as on feast days.
