Hosea 7.12

| Hebrew Text

כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר יֵלֵ֗כוּ אֶפְר֤וֹשׂ עֲלֵיהֶם֙ רִשְׁתִּ֔י כְּע֥וֹף הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם אֽוֹרִידֵ֑ם אַיְסִרֵ֕ם כְּשֵׁ֖מַע לַעֲדָתָֽם׃

| Notes
|
Interesting vocalisation. We'd expect אוֹס(י)ר in the Hiphil (but, cf. הֵיטֵיב). BHS suggests emendation to אֶאֶסְרֵם ‘I shall seize them’ from אס"ר.

It's not clear what כְּשֵׁ֖מַע לַעֲדָתָֽם means and so nor is it clear what role its playing semantically.

Again, the obscurity of כְּשֵׁ֖מַע לַעֲדָתָֽם makes it hard to know what is going on here.
