Izraelczycy wołali ku mnie tak mówiąc: O Boże! Znamyć my ciebie.
Będąć do mnie wołać: Boże mój! My, lud twój Izrael, znamy cię;
A do Mnie wołają: Mój Boże! Przecież my, Israelici, Cię znamy!
Będąć do mnie wołać: Boże mój! My, lud twój Izrael, znamy cię;
Izrael będzie wołać do mnie: Mój Boże, znamy cię.
Krzyczą do mnie: Znamy cię, Boże!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Israel shall cry unto me, my God, we know thee. In their distress they shall cry to the Lord to help them, and have mercy on them, as they used to do when in trouble, Isaiah 26:16; when the eagle is come upon them, and just ready to devour them; when Samaria is besieged with file Assyrian army, their king taken prisoner, and they just ready to fall into the hands of the enemy, then they shall cry to God, though in a hypocritical manner; own him to be the true God, and claim their interest in him, and pretend knowledge of him, and acquaintance with him; though they have not served and worshipped him, but idols, and that for hundreds of years; like others who profess to know God, but in works deny him, Titus 1:16. Israel is the last word in the verse, and occasions different versions: "they shall cry unto me"; these transgressors of the covenant and the law, these hypocrites, shall pray to God in trouble, saying, "my God, we Israel", or Israelites, "know thee"; or, "we know thee who are Israel" x; and to this sense is the Targum,
"in every time that distress comes upon them, they pray before me, and say, now we know that we have no God besides thee; redeem us, for we are thy people Israel;''
why may they not be rendered thus, "they shall cry unto me; my God, we know thee, Israel" shall say? Castalio renders them to this sense, "my God", say they; but "we know thee, Israel"; we, the three Persons in the Trinity, Father, Son, and Spirit, we know thy hypocrisy and wickedness, that it is only outwardly and hypocritically, and not sincerely, that thou criest unto and callest upon God.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Israel shall cry unto Me, My God, we know Thee - Or, according to the order in the Hebrew, âTo Me shall they cry, we know Thee, Israel,â i. e., âwe, Israel,â Thy people, âknow Thee.â It is the same plea which our Lord says that He shall reject in the Day of Judgment. âMany shall say unto Me, in that Day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy Name, and in Thy Name cast out devils, and in Thy Name done many wonderful worksâ Matthew 7:22. In like way, when our Lord came in the flesh, they said of God the Father, He is our God. But our Lord appealed to their own consciences; âIt is My Father who honoreth Me, of whom ye say, He is our God, but ye have not known Himâ John 8:54. So Isaiah, when speaking of his own times, prophesied of those of our Lord also; âThis people draweth nigh unto Me, with their mouth and honoreth Me with their lips; but their heart is far from Meâ Matthew 15:8; Isaiah 29:13. âGod says, that they shall urge this as a proof, that they know God, and as an argument to move God to have respect unto them, namely, that they are the seed of Jacob, who was called Israel, because he prevailed with God, and they were called by his name.â As though they said, âwe, Thy Israel, know thee.â It was all hypocrisy, the cry of mere fear, not of love; from where God, using their own name of Israel which they had pleaded, answers the plea, declaring what âIsraelâ had become.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Hosea 8:2. Israel shalt cry — The rapidity of the eagle's flight is well imitated in the rapidity of the sentences in this place.
My God, we know thee. — The same sentiment, from the same sort of persons, under the same feelings, as that in the Gospel of St. Matthew, Matthew 7:22: "Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? Then will I profess unto them, I never KNEW YOU."
