Osée 9:1-4
Do not rejoice, Israel; do not be jubilant like the other nations. For you have been unfaithful to your God; you love the wages of a prostitute at every threshing floor.Threshing floors and winepresses will not feed the people; the new wine will fail them.They will not remain in the Lord’s land; Ephraim will return to Egypt and eat unclean food in Assyria.They will not pour out wine offerings to the Lord, nor will their sacrifices please him. Such sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat them will be unclean. This food will be for themselves; it will not come into the temple of the Lord. (niv)

Osée 10:12-15
Sow righteousness for yourselves, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the Lord, until he comes and showers his righteousness on you.But you have planted wickedness, you have reaped evil, you have eaten the fruit of deception. Because you have depended on your own strength and on your many warriors,the roar of battle will rise against your people, so that all your fortresses will be devastated— as Shalman devastated Beth Arbel on the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to the ground with their children.So will it happen to you, Bethel, because your wickedness is great. When that day dawns, the king of Israel will be completely destroyed. (niv)

Joël 1:5-12
Wake up, you drunkards, and weep! Wail, all you drinkers of wine; wail because of the new wine, for it has been snatched from your lips.A nation has invaded my land, a mighty army without number; it has the teeth of a lion, the fangs of a lioness.It has laid waste my vines and ruined my fig trees. It has stripped off their bark and thrown it away, leaving their branches white.Mourn like a virgin in sackcloth grieving for the betrothed of her youth.Grain offerings and drink offerings are cut off from the house of the Lord. The priests are in mourning, those who minister before the Lord.The fields are ruined, the ground is dried up; the grain is destroyed, the new wine is dried up, the olive oil fails.Despair, you farmers, wail, you vine growers; grieve for the wheat and the barley, because the harvest of the field is destroyed.The vine is dried up and the fig tree is withered; the pomegranate, the palm and the apple tree— all the trees of the field— are dried up. Surely the people’s joy is withered away. (niv)

Galates 6:7-8
Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. (niv)
