Mereka mencintai korban sembelihan; mereka mempersembahkan daging dan memakannya; tetapi TUHAN tidak berkenan kepada mereka. Sekarang Ia akan mengingat kesalahan mereka dan akan menghukum dosa mereka; mereka harus kembali ke Mesir!
Adapun akan segala korban yang dipersembahkan kepada-Ku, mereka itu membantai binatang dan dimakannya dagingnya, tetapi Tuhan tiada berkenan akan dia! bahwa dalam itu diingatnya akan kejahatan mereka itu dan dibalasnya dosa mereka itu, tak dapat tiada mereka itu akan kembali ke Mesir.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
They sacrifice flesh [for] the sacrifices of mine offerings,
and eat [it],.... Or, "as to the sacrifices mine offerings" or "gifts, they sacrifice flesh, and eat it" o; these sacrifices, which, according to the law, should given to God when they offered them, they did not give them to him, they took them to themselves, and ate them; they were carnal offerings, and offered with a carnal mind, without faith and piety, without any regard to the glory of God, but merely for the sake of caring: the Targum interprets it of sacrifices got by rapine, which God hates, Isaiah 61:8;
[but] the Lord accepteth them not; neither the sacrifices, nor the sacrificers, but despised and abhorred them; no sacrifice was acceptable to God but what was offered according to law, and where he directed, and in the faith of Christ, and through him:
now will he remember their iniquities, and visit their sins; he will not pardon them, but punish for them; so far were their sacrifices making atonement for them, as they expected, they added to the measure of their iniquities:
they shall return into Egypt; either flee thither for refuge, many of them it seems did, when the king of Assyria entered their land, and besieged Samaria; where they lived miserably, as in exile, and were there buried, and never returned to their own land any more; see Hosea 9:3; or they should be carried captive into Assyria, where they should be in a like state of bondage as their fathers were in Egypt. Some render it, "they return into Egypt" p; and consider it not as their punishment, but as their sin; that when the Lord was about to visit them for their transgressions, they being made tributary to the Assyrians, instead of returning to the Lord, and humbling themselves before him, they sent to the king of Egypt for help,
2 Kings 17:4.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of Mine offerings, and eat it; but the Lord accepteth them not - As they rejected God’s law, so God rejected their “sacrifices,” which were not offered according to His law. They, doubtless, thought much of their sacrifices; and this the prophet perhaps expresses by an intensive form ; “the sacrifices of My gifts, gifts,” as though they thought, that they were ever giving. God accounted such sacrifices, not being hallowed by the end for which He instituted them, as mere “flesh.” They “offered flesh” and “ate” it. Such was the beginning, and such the only end. “He” would “not accept them.” Nay, contrariwise, “now,” now while they were offering the sacrifices, God would show in deed that He “remembered” the sins, for which they were intended to atone. God seems to man to forget his sins, when He forbears to punish them; to “remember” them, when He punishes.
They shall return to Egypt - God had commanded them to return no more to Egypt Deuteronomy 17:16 of their own mind. But He had threatened that, on their disobedience, “the Lord would bring them back to Egypt by the way, whereof He spake unto them, Thou shalt see it no more again” Deuteronomy 28:68. Hosea also foretells to them, that they (i. e., many of them) should go to Egypt and perish there Hosea 9:3, Hosea 9:6. Thence also, as from Assyria, they were to be restored Hosea 12:11. Most probably then, Hosea means to threaten an actual return to Egypt, as we are told, that some of the two tribes did go therefor refuse, against the express command of God Jer. 42–43. The main part of the ten tribes were taken to Assyria, yet as they were, even under Hosea, conspiring with Egypt 2 Kings 17:4, such as could, (it is likely) took refuge there. Else, as future deliverance, temporal or spiritual, is foretold under the image of the deliverance out of Egypt, so, contrariwise, the threat, “they shall return to Egypt,” may be, in figure, a cancelling of the covenant, whereby God had promised, that His people should not return: a threat of renewed bondage, “like” the Egyptian; an abandonment of them to the state, from which God once had freed them and had made them His people.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Hosea 8:13. They sacrifice flesh — Bp. Newcome translates thus: "They sacrifice gifts appointed unto me, and eat flesh." They offer to their idols the things which belong to Jehovah; or, while pretending to offer unto the Lord, they eat and drink idolatrously; and therefore the Lord will not accept them.
They shall return to Egypt. — Many of them did return to Egypt after the conquest of Palestine by Shalmaneser, and many after the ruin of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar; but they had in effect returned to Egypt by setting up the worship of the golden calves, which were in imitation of the Egyptian Apis.
