 <<  Hosea 8 >> 

1SET THE trumpet to your lips! [The enemy] comes as a [great] vulture against the house of the Lord, because they have broken My covenant and transgressed against My law.

2Then they will cry to Me, My God, we [of Israel] know You!

3Israel has rejected the good [with loathing]; the enemy shall pursue him.

4They set up kings, but not from Me [therefore without My blessing]; they have made princes or removed them [without consulting Me; therefore], I knew {and} recognized [them] not. With their silver and their gold they made idols for themselves, that they [the silver and the gold] may be destroyed.

5Your calf [idol], O Samaria, is loathsome {and} I have spurned it. My wrath burns against them. How long will it be before they attain purity?

6For this [calf] too is from Israel; a craftsman made it; therefore it is not God. The calf of Samaria shall be broken to shivers {and} go up in flames.

7For they sow the wind and they shall reap the whirlwind. The standing grain has no heads; it shall yield no meal; if it were to yield, strangers {and} aliens would eat it up.

8Israel is [as if] swallowed up. Already they have become among the nations as a vessel [of cheap, coarse pottery] that is useless.

9For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass taking her own way by herself; Ephraim has hired lovers.

10Yes, though with presents they hire [allies] among the nations, now will I gather them up, and in a little while they will sorrow {and} begin to diminish [their gifts] because of the burden (tribute) imposed by the king of princes [the king of Assyria].

11For Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning; yes, to him altars are intended for sinning.

12I wrote for him the ten thousand things of My law, but they are counted as a strange thing [as something which does not concern him].

13My sacrificial gifts they sacrifice [as a mere form]; yes, they sacrifice flesh and eat it, but the Lord does not accept them. Now He will [earnestly] remember their guilt {and} iniquity and will punish their sins. They shall return to [another] Egypt [Assyria].

14For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces {and} idol temples, and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire upon his cities and it shall devour his palaces {and} fortified buildings.
