Hosea 9:1 - The Message

Don’t waste your life in wild orgies, Israel. Don’t party away your life with the heathen.
You walk away from your God at the drop of a hat
   and like a whore sell yourself promiscuously
   at every sex-and-religion party on the street.
All that party food won’t fill you up.
   You’ll end up hungrier than ever.
At this rate you’ll not last long in God’s land:
   Some of you are going to end up bankrupt in Egypt.
   Some of you will be disillusioned in Assyria.
As refugees in Egypt and Assyria,
   you won’t have much chance to worship God—
Sentenced to rations of bread and water,
   and your souls polluted by the spirit-dirty air.
You’ll be starved for God,
   exiled from God’s own country.
Will you be homesick for the old Holy Days?
   Will you miss festival worship of God?
Be warned! When you escape from the frying pan of disaster,
   you’ll fall into the fire of Egypt.
   Egypt will give you a fine funeral!
What use will all your god-inspired silver be then
   as you eke out a living in a field of weeds?
