Hosea 8:11 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Hosea 8:11

9 For they have gone up to Assyria,
Like ^aa wild donkey alone by itself;
Ephraim ^bhas hired lovers.

10 Yes, though they have hired among the nations,
Now ^aI will gather them;
And they shall¹ sorrow a little,
Because of the¹ burden of ^bthe king of princes.

11 “Because Ephraim has made many altars for sin,
They have become for him altars for sinning.

12 I have written for him ^athe great things of My law,
But they were considered a strange thing.

13 For the sacrifices of My offerings ^athey sacrifice flesh and eat it,
^bBut the Lord does not accept them.
^cNow He will remember their iniquity and punish their sins.
They shall return to Egypt.

14 “For^a Israel has forgotten ^bhis Maker,
And has built¹ temples;
Judah also has multiplied ^cfortified cities;
But ^dI will send fire upon his cities,
And it shall devour his¹ palaces.”
