Hosea 8:8-10
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 8
8Israel has been swallowed up; They are now among the nations Like a vessel in which no one delights. 9For they have gone up to Assyria, Like a wild donkey all alone; Ephraim has paid fees for lovers. 10Even though they pay for allies among the nations, I will gather them up now; And they will begin to diminish Because of the burden of the king of officials.King James Version
Chapter 8
8Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure. 9For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers. 10Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 8
8Israel is swallowed up! Now they are among the nations like discarded pottery. 9For they have gone up to Assyria like a wild donkey going off on its own. Ephraim has paid for love. 10Even though they hire lovers among the nations, I will now round them up, and they will begin to decrease in number under the burden of the king and leaders.New Living Translation
Chapter 8
8The people of Israel have been swallowed up; they lie among the nations like an old discarded pot. 9Like a wild donkey looking for a mate, they have gone up to Assyria. The people of Israel have sold themselves — sold themselves to many lovers. 10But though they have sold themselves to many allies, I will now gather them together for judgment. Then they will writhe under the burden of the great king.English Standard Version

8Israel is swallowed up; already they are among the nations as a useless vessel. 9For they have gone up to Assyria, a wild donkey wandering alone; Ephraim has hired lovers. 10Though they hire allies among the nations, I will soon gather them up. And the king and princes shall soon writhe because of the tribute.New International Version
