Hosea 8:9Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 versionFor they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath given gifts to his lovers. See the chapter |
The burden of the beasts of the south. In a land of trouble and distress, from whence come the lioness and the lion, the viper and the flying basilisk, they carry their riches upon the shoulders of beasts and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not be able to profit them.
