Hosea 8:7

sown . . . reap— (Proverbs 22:8; Galatians 6:7). "Sow . . . wind," that is, to make the vain show of worship, while faith and obedience are wanting [CALVIN]. Rather, to offer senseless supplications to the calves for good harvests (compare Hosea 2:8); the result being that God will make them "reap no stalk," that is, "standing corn." Also, the phraseology proverbially means that all their undertakings shall be profitless (Proverbs 11:29; Ecclesiastes 5:16).

the bud—or, "growth."

strangers—foreigners (Hosea 7:9).
