← Hosea 8:14	Hosea 9:1 (KJV)	Hosea 9:2 →
For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.	Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as [other] people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.	The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her.
