Hosea 10:9

9From the days of Gibeah, Israel has sinned; in this, they remained firm. The battle in Gibeah against the sons of iniquity will not take hold of them.
10:9The word ‘steterunt’ is often misunderstood to mean ‘to stand,’ when it often means ‘to stand firm’ or ‘to remain firm.’ Israel has remained firm ‘there’ or ‘in that matter’ or ‘in this.’(Conte)

10:9Also, they will not join in the battle against evil-doers. This battle does not interest them because they also are sons of iniquity.(Conte)
