Hosea 9:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 What will ye do [a]then in the solemn day, and in the day of the feast of the Lord?
6 For lo, they are gone from [b]destruction: but Egypt shall gather them up, and Memphis shall bury them: the nettle shall possess the pleasant places of their silver, and the thorn shall be in their tabernacles.
7 The days of visitation are come: the days of recompense are come: Israel shall know it: [c]the Prophet is a fool: the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity: therefore the hatred is great.

- Hosea 9:6 Though they think to escape by fleeing the destruction that is at hand, yet shall they be destroyed in the place whither they flee for succor.

Hosea 9:5-7
New International Version
5 What will you do(A) on the day of your appointed festivals,(B)
on the feast days of the Lord?
6 Even if they escape from destruction,
Egypt will gather them,(C)
and Memphis(D) will bury them.(E)
Their treasures of silver(F) will be taken over by briers,
and thorns(G) will overrun their tents.
7 The days of punishment(H) are coming,
the days of reckoning(I) are at hand.
Let Israel know this.
Because your sins(J) are so many
and your hostility so great,
the prophet is considered a fool,(K)
the inspired person a maniac.(L)
