Hosea

Uses the prophet's marriage as a symbol for Israel's unfaithfulness and God's faithful love.

Chapter 7

KJV - Hosea 7:9

Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.

Outsiders took away his energy, but he doesn't realize it. He has some gray hair now, but still doesn't understand.
