Bible. Hosea
28:004:009 And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will
punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
28:004:010 For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit
whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off
to take heed to the LORD.
28:004:011 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
28:004:012 My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff
declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused
them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their
God.
28:004:013 They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn
incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms,
because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters
shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
28:004:014 I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom,
nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are
separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots:
therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.
28:004:015 Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah
offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to
Bethaven, nor swear, The LORD liveth.
28:004:016 For Israel slideth back as a backsliding heifer: now the LORD
will feed them as a lamb in a large place.
28:004:017 Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
28:004:018 Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredom continually:
her rulers with shame do love, Give ye.
28:004:019 The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be
ashamed because of their sacrifices.
28:005:001 Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and
give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you,
because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon
Tabor.
28:005:002 And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I
have been a rebuker of them all.
28:005:003 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O
Ephraim, thou committest whoredom, and Israel is defiled.
28:005:004 They will not frame their doings to turn unto their God: for
the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have
not known the LORD.
28:005:005 And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore
shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity: Judah also
shall fall with them.
28:005:006 They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek
the LORD; but they shall not find him; he hath withdrawn
himself from them.
28:005:007 They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have
begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with
their portions.
