Douay Bible - Hosea Chapter 5

Hosea 5:1
Hear ye this, O priests, and hearken, O ye house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king: for there is a judgment against you, because you have been a snare to them whom you should have watched over, and a net spread upon Thabor.

Hosea 5:2
And you have turned aside victims into the depth: and I am, the teacher of them all.

Hosea 5:3
I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now Ephraim hath committed fornication, Israel is defiled.

Hosea 5:4
They will not set their thoughts to return to their God: for the spirit of fornication is in the midst of them, and they have not known the Lord.

Hosea 5:5
And the pride of Israel shall answer in his face: and Israel and Ephraim shall fall in their iniquity, Juda also shall fall with them.

Hosea 5:6
With their flocks, and with their herds, they shall go to seek the Lord, and shall not find him: he is withdrawn from them.

Hosea 5:7
They have transgressed against the Lord, for they have begotten children that are strangers: now shall a month devour them with their portions.

Hosea 5:8
Blow ye the cornet in Gabaa, the trumpet in Rama: howl ye in Bethaven, behind thy back, O Benjamin.

Hosea 5:9
Ephraim shall be in desolation in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel I have shewn that which shall surely be.

Hosea 5:10
The princes of Juda are become as they that take up the bound: I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.

Hosea 5:11
Ephraim is under oppression, and broken in judgment: because he began to go after filthiness.

Hosea 5:12
And I will be like a moth to Ephraim: and like rottenness to the house of Juda.

Hosea 5:13
And Ephraim saw his sickness, and Juda his band: and Ephraim went to the Assyrian, and sent to the avenging king: and he shall not be able to heal you, neither shall he be able to take off the band from you.

Hosea 5:14
For I will be like a lioness to Ephraim, and like a lion’s whelp to the house of Juda: I, I will catch, and go: I will take away, and there is none that can rescue.

Hosea 5:15
I will go and return to my place: until you are consumed, and seek my face.

Introduction to the Douay-Rheims Bible

The Douay-Rheims Bible is an English translation of the Latin Vulgate, a 4th-century Latin translation of the Bible. It was published in the late 16th and early 17th centuries for English-speaking Catholics. The New Testament was published in 1582 and the Old Testament in 1609-10. It is considered one of the most influential English Bibles of the time. The Douay-Rheims Bible differs from other versions in several ways: Translation source: Unlike many other English Bibles that were translated from the original Greek and Hebrew texts, the Douay-Rheims was translated from the Latin Vulgate, which was the standard version of the Bible for the Catholic Church for many centuries. Language: The Douay-Rheims uses an archaic form of English, making it difficult for modern readers to understand. Theology: The Douay-Rheims reflects the theology of the Catholic Church, including its views on the authority of the Pope and the sacraments. Footnotes and commentary: The Douay-Rhe
