Hosea 4:12-19
12My peopleH5971 askH7592 counsel at their idolsH6086, and their staffH4731 declarethH5046 to them: for the spiritH7307 of harlotryH2183 hath caused them to errH8582, and they have played the harlotH2181 departing from under their GodH430. 13They sacrificeH2076 upon the topsH7218 of the mountainsH2022, and burn incenseH6999 upon the hillsH1389, under oaksH437 and poplarsH3839 and elmsH424, because their shadowH6738 is pleasantH2896: therefore your daughtersH1323 shall commit harlotryH2181, and your spousesH3618 shall commit adulteryH5003. 14I will not punishH6485 your daughtersH1323 when they commit harlotryH2181, nor your spousesH3618 when they commit adulteryH5003: for they themselves are separatedH6504 with harlotsH2181, and they sacrificeH2076 with harlotsH6948: therefore the peopleH5971 that doth not understandH995 shall fallH3832.12 15Though thou, IsraelH3478, playest the harlotH2181, yet let not JudahH3063 offendH816; and comeH935 not ye to GilgalH1537, neither go ye upH5927 to BethavenH1007, nor swearH7650, The LORDH3068 livethH2416. 16For IsraelH3478 slideth backH5637 as a backslidingH5637 heiferH6510: now the LORDH3068 will feedH7462 them as a lambH3532 in a large placeH4800. 17EphraimH669 is joinedH2266 to idolsH6091: let him aloneH3240. 18Their drinkH5435 is sourH5493: they have committed harlotryH2181 continuallyH2181: her rulersH4043 with loveH157 shameH7036 more than gloryH3051.34 19The windH7307 hath bound her upH6887 in her wingsH3671, and they shall be ashamedH954 because of their sacrificesH2077.
