which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome with wine!

jlike the dew that goes early away.
Hosea 9:10-11
10 Like grapes in the wilderness,kI found Israel.
Like the first fruit on the fig tree
in its first season,
I saw your fathers.
But lthey came to Baal-peor
and mconsecrated themselves to the thing of shame,
and nbecame detestable like the thing they loved.
11Ephraim’s oglory shall fly away like a bird—
pno birth, no pregnancy, no conception!
Hosea 9:16
16 Ephraim is stricken;qtheir root is dried up;
they shall bear no fruit.
Even rthough they give birth,
sI will put their beloved children to death.

rising from the wilderness,
xand his fountain shall dry up;
his spring shall be parched;
it shall strip yhis treasury
of every precious thing.
James 1:10-11
10and zthe rich in his humiliation, because aalike a flower of the grass ▼▼Or a wild flower
he will pass away. 11For the sun rises with its scorching heat and acwithers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
