Hosea 10:1-8

1IsraelH3478 is a luxuriant vineH1612, that putteth forth his fruitH6529: according to the abundanceH7230 of his fruitH6529 he hath multipliedH7235 his altarsH4196; according to the goodness of their landH776 they have madeH3190 goodly pillarsH4676. 2Their heartH3820 is dividedH2505; nowH6258 shall they be found guiltyH816: he will smite their altarsH4196, he will destroyH7703 their pillarsH4676. 3Surely nowH6258 shall they sayH559, We have no kingH4428; for we fearH3372 not Jehovah; and the kingH4428, what can he do for us?

4They speakH1696vainwordsH1697, swearingH422 falsely in makingH3772 covenantsH1285: therefore judgmentH4941 springeth up as hemlock in the furrowsH8525 of the fieldH7704. 5The inhabitantsH7934 of SamariaH8111 shall be in terror for the calves of Beth-aven; for the peopleH5971 thereof shall mournH56 over it, and the priestsH3649 thereof that rejoicedH1523 over it, for the gloryH3519 thereof, because it is departed from it. 6It alsoH1571 shall be carried unto AssyriaH804 for a present to kingH4428 JarebH3377: EphraimH669 shall receiveH3947 shameH954, and IsraelH3478 shall be ashamedH954 of his own counselH6098. 7As for SamariaH8111, her kingH4428 is cut off, as foam upon the waterH4325. 8The highH1116 placesH1116 also of Aven, the sinH2403 of IsraelH3478, shall be destroyedH8045: the thornH6975 and the thistleH1863 shall comeH5927 up on their altarsH4196; and they shall sayH559 to the mountainsH2022, CoverH3680 us; and to the hillsH1389, FallH5307 on us.
