“The threshing floor and the wine press won’t feed them,and the new wine will fail her.”
Hosea 9:2 (WEB)
Context Reading
1Don’t rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations;for you were unfaithful to your God.You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing floor. 2The threshing floor and the wine press won’t feed them,and the new wine will fail her. 3They won’t dwell in Yahweh’s land;but Ephraim will return to Egypt,and they will eat unclean food in Assyria. 4They won’t pour out wine offerings to Yahweh,neither will they be pleasing to him.Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners;all who eat of it will be polluted;for their bread will be for their appetite.It will not come into Yahweh’s house.
