Hosea 9:5-7

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁵ What will you do on the day of appointed festival,
    and on the day of the feast of the Lord?
⁶ For behold, they are going to Assyria;^[a]
    Egypt shall gather them,
    Memphis shall bury them.
Nettles shall possess their precious things of silver;
    thorns shall be in their tents.

⁷ The days of punishment have come,
    the days of recompense have come;
    Israel shall know it.
The prophet is a fool,
    the man of the spirit is mad,
because of your great iniquity
    and great hatred.
