NASB
"Harlotry, wine and new wine take away the understanding."
— Hosea 4:11, NASB
“Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.”
“Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the understanding. ”
“Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.”
“Judgment of Pagan Idolatry and Cultic Prostitution Old and new wine take away the understanding of my people.”
“Fornication, and wine, and drunkenness, take away the understanding.”
“Loose ways and new wine take away wisdom.”
“Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.”
They feed on the sin of My people And direct their desire toward their iniquity.
And it will be, like people, like priest; So I will punish them for their ways And repay them for their deeds.
They will eat, but not have enough; They will play the harlot, but not increase, Because they have stopped giving heed to the LORD.
Harlotry, wine and new wine take away the understanding.
My people consult their wooden idol, and their diviner's wand informs them; For a spirit of harlotry has led them astray, And they have played the harlot, departing from their God.
They offer sacrifices on the tops of the mountains And burn incense on the hills, Under oak, poplar and terebinth, Because their shade is pleasant. Therefore your daughters play the harlot And your brides commit adultery.
I will not punish your daughters when they play the harlot Or your brides when they commit adultery, For the men themselves go apart with harlots And offer sacrifices with temple prostitutes; So the people without understanding are ruined.
