Hosea 7

¹ When I heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim will be exposed, as well as the crimes of Samaria. For they practice deceit and thieves break in; bandits raid in the streets.

² But they fail to consider in their hearts that I remember all their evil. Now their deeds are all around them; they are before My face.

³ They delight the king with their evil, and the princes with their lies.

⁴ They are all adulterers, like an oven heated by a baker who needs not stoke the fire from the kneading to the rising of the dough.

⁵ The princes are inflamed with wine on the day of our king; so he joins hands with those who mock him.
