Hosea 5 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Hos 5:1

Hos 5:1Hear these things, ye priests; and attend, O house of Israel; and hearken, O house of the king; for the controversy is with you, because ye have been a snare in Scopia, and as a net spread on Itabyrium,

Hos 5:2

Hos 5:2which they that hunt the prey have fixed: but I will correct you.

Hos 5:3

Hos 5:3I know Ephraim, and Israel is not far from me: for now Ephraim has gone grievously a-whoring, Israel is defiled.

Hos 5:4

Hos 5:4They have not framed their counsels to return to their God, for the spirit of fornication is in them, and they have not known the Lord.

Hos 5:7

Hos 5:7For they have forsaken the Lord; for strange children have been born to them: now shall the cankerworm devour them and their heritages.

Hos 5:8

Hos 5:12

Hos 5:12Therefore I will be as consternation to Ephraim, and as a goad to the house of Juda.

Hos 5:13

Hos 5:13And Ephraim saw his disease, and Judas his pain; then Ephraim went to the Assyrians, and sent ambassadors to king Jarim: but he could not heal you, and your pain shall in nowise cease from you.

Hos 5:14

Hos 5:14Wherefore I am as a panther to Ephraim, and as a lion to the house of Juda: and I will tear, and go away; and I will take, and there shall be none to deliver.

Hos 5:15
