Hosea 9:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² But the threshing floors will not provide enough grain to feed the people.
The winepresses will not give them enough new wine.
³ The Israelites will not remain in the Lord's land.
They will have to return to Egypt.
In Assyria, they will have to eat food that is unclean.
⁴ They will not pour out wine as an offering to the Lord.
Their sacrifices will not please him.
Instead, their offerings will be like food that people eat at a funeral.
Anyone who eats it becomes unclean.
They may eat the food to feed themselves,
but they cannot offer it to the Lord in his temple.
