Hosea 8:7-8 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

⁷For they sow the wind,

and they shall reap the whirlwind.

There is no standing grain;

what sprouts fails to yield flour.

Even if it should produce,

the foreigners would swallow it up.

⁸Israel is swallowed up!

Now they are among the nations

like a worthless vessel.

— Hosea 8:7-8
