Hosea 13:6

When they were fed, ¹  they became satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; ²  as a result, they forgot me!

When I fed them, they were satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; then they forgot me.

As they had their pasture, they became satisfied, And being satisfied, their heart became proud; Therefore they forgot Me.

But when you had eaten and were satisfied, then you became proud and forgot me.

I took care of you, took care of all your needs, gave you everything you needed. You were spoiled. You thought you didn't need me. You forgot me.

When I gave them food they were full, and their hearts were full of pride, and they did not keep me in mind.

When I fed them, they were satisfied; they were satisfied, and their heart was proud; therefore they forgot me.

When they had pasture, they were filled; They were filled and their heart was exalted; Therefore they forgot Me.

When they were fed, ¹  they became satisfied; when they were satisfied, they became proud; ²  as a result, they forgot me!

¹ tc The MT reads כְּמַרְעִיתָם (kÿmar’itam, “according to their pasturage”; preposition כְּ (kaf) + noun מַרְעִית, mar’it, “pasture” + 3rd person masculine plural suffix). Text-critics propose: (1) כְּמוֹ רְעִיתִים (kÿmo rÿ’itim, “as I pastured them”; preposition כְּמוֹ (kÿmo) + Qal perfect 1st person common singular from רָעַה, ra’ah, “to pasture, feed” + 3rd person masculine plural suffix) and (2) כִּרְעוֹתָם (“when they had pastured”; preposition כְּ + Qal perfect 3rd person masculine plural from רָעַה). Some English versions follow the MT: “according to their pasture” (KJV), “as they had their pasture” (NASB), “when you entered the good land” (TEV). Others adopt the first emendation: “when I fed them” (NIV, NRSV), “I fed you [sic = them]” (CEV). Still others follow the second emendation: “but when they had fed to the full” (RSV), “when they grazed” (NJPS).

² tn Heb “their heart became exalted”; KJV, ASV “was exalted.”
