Hosea 9:4 Context
2The floore and the winepresse shall not feede them, and the new wine shall faile in her. 3They shal not dwel in þe Lords land: but Ephraim shall returne to Egypt, and they shall eat vncleane things in Assyria. 4They shall not offer wine offrings to the Lord: neither shall they be pleasing vnto him: their sacrifices shalbe vnto them as the bread of mourners: all that eate thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soule shall not come into the house of the Lord. 5What will yee doe in the solemne day, and in the day of the feast of the Lord ? 6For loe they are gone, because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them vp, Memphis shall burie them: the pleasant places for their siluer, netles shal possesse them: thornes shall be in their Tabernacles.

They shall not offer wine [offerings] to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices [shall be] unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD.
- King James Version
They will not pour out drink offerings of wine to the LORD, Their sacrifices will not please Him. {Their bread will} {be} like mourners' bread; All who eat of it will be defiled, For their bread will be for themselves {alone;} It will not enter the house of the LORD.
