Hosea 8:5-10

5He has rejectedH2186 your calfH5695,1 O SamariaH8111. My angerH639 burnsH2734 against them. How long will they beH5704H4970 incapableH3808H3201 of innocenceH5356?6ForH3588 this thingH1931 is from IsraelH3478— a craftsmanH2796 made itH6213, and itH1931H3588 is notH3808 GodH430. It will beH1961 broken to piecesH7616, that calfH5695 of SamariaH8111.

7ForH3588 they sowH2232 the windH7307,and they shall reapH7114 the whirlwindH5492.There is noH369 standing grainH7054;what sproutsH6780 failsH1097 to yieldH6213 flourH7058.Even ifH194 it should produceH6213,the foreignersH2114 would swallow it upH1104.8IsraelH3478 is swallowed upH1104!NowH6258 they areH1961 among the nationsH1471like a worthlessH369H2656 vesselH3627.9ForH3588 theyH1992 have gone upH5927 to AssyriaH804like a wild donkeyH6501 on its ownH909.EphraimH6692 has hiredH8566 loversH158.10ThoughH1571H3588 they hire alliesH8566 among the nationsH1471,I will nowH6258 round them upH6908,and they will beginH2490 to diminishH4592under the oppressionH4853 of the kingH4428 of princesH8269.
