Hosea

Hosea 9:9–10

⁹They have deeply corrupted themselves

as in the days of Gibeah;

He will remember their guilt;

He will punish their sins.

¹⁰I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness.

I saw your fathers as the firstfruits

of the fig tree in its first season.

But they went to Baal-peor,

and consecrated themselves to Shame;

so they became as detestable

as the thing they loved.
