Hosea 13:1-8

1When EphraimH669 spake, there was trembling; he exalted himself in IsraelH3478; but when he offended in BaalH1168, he diedH4191. 2And nowH6258 they sinH2398 more and more, and have madeH6213 them molten images of their silverH3701, even idolsH6091 according to their own understandingH8394, all of them the workH4639 of the craftsmenH2796: they sayH559 of them, Let the menH120 that sacrificeH2076 kiss the calvesH5695. 3ThereforeH3651 they shall beH1961 as the morningH1242 cloudH6051, and as the dewH2919 that passeth earlyH7925 away, as the chaffH4671 that is driven with the whirlwind out of the threshing-floor, and as the smokeH6227 out of the chimney.

4Yet I am Jehovah thy GodH430 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714; and thou shalt knowH3045 no godH430 but me, and besides me there is no saviour. 5I did knowH3045 thee in the wildernessH4057, in the landH776 of great drought. 6According to their pastureH4830, soH3651 were they filled; they were filled, and their heartH3820 was exaltedH7311: thereforeH3651 have they forgottenH7911 me. 7Therefore amH1961 I unto them as a lionH7826; as a leopardH5246 will I watchH7789 by the wayH1870; 8I will meetH6298 them as a bearH1677 that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the caul of their heartH3820; and there will I devourH398 them like a lionessH3833; the wild beast shall tearH7167 them.
