Verse 17 is found in chapter 9 of Hosea. Gilgal appears as a place where God no longer wishes to tolerate Israel’s wickedness. The expulsion from his house and the loss of fruitfulness form part of the judgment. The people will be rejected because they did not listen to God. The passage uses family and agricultural images to show how spiritual rupture eventually affects social and reproductive stability as well.

Mein Gott wird sie verwerfen, darum daß sie ihn nicht hören wollen; und sie müssen unter den Heiden in der Irre gehen.
Mi Dios los desechará, porque ellos no le oyeron; y andarán errantes entre las gentes.
Mi Dios los rechazará porque no lo han escuchado, y andarán errantes entre las naciones.
Mon Dieu les rejettera, parce qu'ils ne l'ont pas écouté, Et ils seront errants parmi les nations.
L’Iddio mio li sdegnerà, perciocchè non gli hanno ubbidito; e saranno vagabondi fra le genti
O meu Deus os rejeitará, porque não o ouviram, e errantes andarão entre as nações.
我的上帝必棄絕他們, 因為他們不聽從他; 他們必飄流在列國中。
