Hosea 7:4-11

4They all practise adulteryH5003, as an ovenH8574 heated by the bakerH644: he ceaseth from stirring [the fire] after he hath kneadedH3888 the doughH1217, until it be leavened.

5In the dayH3117 of our kingH4428, the princesH8269 made themselves sickH2470 with the heat of wineH3196: he stretched out his handH3027 to scorners.

6For they have applied their heartH3820 like an ovenH8574 to their lyingH693 in waitH693: their bakerH644 sleepeth all the nightH3915; in the morningH1242 it burneth like a flamingH3852 fireH784.

7They are all hotH2552 as an ovenH8574, and devourH398 their judgesH8199; all their kingsH4428 are fallenH5307: there is none among them that calleth unto me.

8EphraimH669, he mixeth himself with the peoplesH5971; EphraimH669 is a cakeH5692 not turnedH2015.

9StrangersH2114 have devouredH398 his strengthH3581, and he knoweth [it] not; yea, grayH7872 hairsH7872 are here and there upon him, and he knoweth [it] not.

10And the prideH1347 of IsraelH3478 testifieth to his faceH6440; and they do not returnH7725 to Jehovah their 1GodH430, nor seekH1245 him for all this.

11And EphraimH669 is becomeH1961 like a silly doveH3123 without understanding: they callH7121 to EgyptH4714, they goH1980 to AssyriaH804.
