Hosea 8:5-14

5Thy calfH5695, O SamariaH8111, hath castH2186 thee off; mine angerH639 is kindledH2734 against them: how long will it be ereH3808 they attainH3201 to innocencyH5356? 6For from IsraelH3478 was it also: the workmanH2796 madeH6213 it; therefore it is not GodH430: but the calfH5695 of SamariaH8111 shall be broken in piecesH7616. 7For they have sownH2232 the windH7307, and they shall reapH7114 the whirlwindH5492: it hath no stalkH7054: the budH6780 shall yieldH6213 no mealH7058: ifH194 so be it yieldH6213, the strangersH2114 shall swallow it upH1104.1 8IsraelH3478 is swallowed upH1104: now shall they be among the GentilesH1471 as a vesselH3627 wherein is no pleasureH2656. 9For they are gone upH5927 to AssyriaH804, a wild donkeyH6501 aloneH909 by himself: EphraimH669 hath hiredH8566 loversH158.2 10Yea, though they have hiredH8566 among the nationsH1471, now will I gatherH6908 them, and they shall sorrowH2490 a littleH4592 for the burdenH4853 of the kingH4428 of princesH8269.34 11Because EphraimH669 hath made manyH7235 altarsH4196 to sinH2398, altarsH4196 shall be unto him to sinH2398. 12I have writtenH3789 to him the great thingsH7239H7230 of my lawH8451, but they were countedH2803 as a strange thingH2114. 13They sacrificeH2076 fleshH1320 for the sacrificesH2077 of mine offeringsH1890, and eatH398 it; but YhwhH3068 acceptethH7521 them not; now will he rememberH2142 their iniquityH5771, and visitH6485 their sinsH2403: they shall returnH7725 to EgyptH4714.5 14For IsraelH3478 hath forgottenH7911 his MakerH6213, and buildethH1129 templesH1964; and JudahH3063 hath multipliedH7235 fencedH1219 citiesH5892: but I will sendH7971 a fireH784 upon his citiesH5892, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 thereof.
