Revised Literal Translation

Hosea 7:4-6

4They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.1 2

5In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with the poison of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.3

6For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.4
