Hosea 9:6-8
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
6 For behold they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them together, Memphis shall bury them: nettles shall inherit their beloved silver, the bur shall be in their tabernacles.
7 The days of visitation are come, the days of repaying are come: know ye, O Israel, that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, for the multitude of thy iniquity, and the multitude of thy madness.
8 The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: the prophet is become a snare of ruin upon all his ways, madness is in the house of his God.

Hosea 9:6-8
New International Version
6 Even if they escape from destruction,
Egypt will gather them,(A)
and Memphis(B) will bury them.(C)
Their treasures of silver(D) will be taken over by briers,
and thorns(E) will overrun their tents.
7 The days of punishment(F) are coming,
the days of reckoning(G) are at hand.
Let Israel know this.
Because your sins(H) are so many
and your hostility so great,
the prophet is considered a fool,(I)
the inspired person a maniac.(J)
8 The prophet, along with my God,
is the watchman over Ephraim,[a]
yet snares(K) await him on all his paths,
and hostility in the house of his God.(L)
