Hosea

Chapter 7

1 WHEN I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was revealed and the wickedness of Samaria; for they committed falsehood in my presence; and the thief came in, and the robber robbed men in the streets.

2 And they never said in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness; now their own devices have beset them about; they were before my face.

3 They have made the kings glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.

4 Their rulers are all adulterers, their passion is as an oven heated to bake bread, the baker who kneads the dough ceases from going to the city, and waits until it is leavened.

5 The day they start to give counsel, the princes begin to become inflamed with wine; they stretch out their hands with wicked men.

6 Because their heart is hot like an oven with their plots, all night their anger is suppressed; and in the morning it burns as a flaming fire.

7 They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings have fallen; there is none among them who calls upon me.

8 Ephraim has mixed himself with Gentiles; Ephraim has become as a loaf of bread which is eaten before it is baked.

9 Thus strangers have devoured his strength, and he knows it not: yea, gray hairs have grown upon him, yet he knows it not.

10 And the pride of Israel has been humbled in his presence; and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this.

11 Ephraim also is like a young dove without understanding; they have come to Egypt, they are gone to Assyria.

12 Wherever they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the air; I will chastise them according to the testimony which is heard against them.

13 Woe to them! for they have fled from me; I will bring misfortune upon them because they have transgressed against me; though I have saved them, yet they have spoken lies against me.

14 And they have not cried unto me with their heart, but they howled upon their beds; they quarrel over wheat and wine, and they have rebelled against me.

15 Though I have disciplined and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.

16 They have perverted themselves for nothing; they have become like a deceitful bow; their princes shall fall by the sword because of the boldness of their tongue; such shall be their entanglement in the land of Egypt.

Hosea

Chapter 7

1 When I would have healed7495 Israel,3478 then the iniquity5771 of Ephraim669 was discovered,1540 and the wickedness7451 of Samaria:8111 for they commit6466 falsehood;8267 and the thief1590 comes935 in, and the troop1416 of robbers spoils6584 without.2351

2 And they consider559 not in their hearts3824 that I remember2142 all3605 their wickedness:7451 now their own doings4611 have beset5437 them about;5437 they are before5048 my face.6440

3 They make the king4428 glad8056 with their wickedness,7451 and the princes8269 with their lies.3585

4 They are all3605 adulterers,5003 as an oven8574 heated1197 by the baker,644 who ceases7673 from raising5782 after he has kneaded3888 the dough,1217 until5704 it be leavened.2557

5 In the day3117 of our king4428 the princes8269 have made him sick2470 with bottles2573 of wine;3196 he stretched4900 out his hand3027 with scorners.3945

6 For they have made ready7126 their heart3820 like an oven,8574 whiles they lie in wait:693 their baker644 sleeps3463 all3605 the night;3915 in the morning1242 it burns1197 as a flaming3852 fire.784

7 They are all3605 hot2552 as an oven,8574 and have devoured398 their judges;8199 all3605 their kings4428 are fallen:5307 there is none369 among them that calls7121 to me.

8 Ephraim,669 he has mixed1101 himself1931 among the people;5971 Ephraim669 is a cake5692 not turned.2015

9 Strangers2114 have devoured398 his strength,3581 and he knows3045 it not: yes,1571 gray7872 hairs are here2236 and there on him, yet he knows3045 not.

10 And the pride1347 of Israel3478 testifies6030 to his face:6440 and they do not return7725 to the LORD3068 their God,430 nor3808 seek1245 him for all3605 this.2063

11 Ephraim669 also is like a silly6601 dove3123 without369 heart:3820 they call7121 to Egypt,4714 they go1980 to Assyria.804

12 When834 they shall go,3212 I will spread6566 my net7568 on them; I will bring3381 them down3381 as the fowls5775 of the heaven;8064 I will chastise3256 them, as their congregation5712 has heard.8085

13 Woe188 to them! for they have fled5074 from me: destruction7701 to them! because3588 they have transgressed6586 against me: though I have redeemed6299 them, yet they have spoken1696 lies3576 against5921 me.

14 And they have not cried2199 to me with their heart,3820 when3588 they howled3213 on their beds:4904 they assemble1481 themselves for corn1715 and wine,8492 and they rebel5493 against me.

15 Though I have bound3256 and strengthened2388 their arms,2220 yet do they imagine2803 mischief7451 against413 me.

16 They return,7725 but not to the most5920 High:5920 they are like a deceitful7423 bow:7198 their princes8269 shall fall5307 by the sword2719 for the rage2195 of their tongue:3956 this2097 shall be their derision3932 in the land776 of Egypt.4714

11 Ephraim also is like a young dove without understanding; they have come to Egypt, they are gone to Assyria.
