Hosea 8:7
King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology
CHAPTER 8. |
||
Set the trumpet to thy mouth. He shall come as an eagle against the house of the Lord, because they have transgressed my covenant, and trespassed against my law. |
||
Israel shall cry unto me, My God, we know thee. |
||
Israel hath cast off the thing that is good: the enemy shall pursue him. |
||
They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off. |
||
ΒΆThy calf, O Samaria, hath cast thee off; mine anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocency? |
||
For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces. |
||
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up. |
||
Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure. |
||
For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim hath hired lovers. |
||
Yea, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes. |
||
Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin. |
||
I have written to him the great things of my law, but they were counted as a strange thing. |
||
They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the Lord accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt. |
||
For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof. |
