Oseas 10

1Israel^H3478 is a luxuriant^H1238 vine^H1612, that putteth forth^H7737 his fruit^H6529: according to the abundance^H7230 of his fruit^H6529 he hath multiplied^H7235 his altars^H4196; according to the goodness^H2896 of their land^H776 they have made goodly^H2895 pillars^H4676. 2Their heart^H3820 is divided^H2505; now shall they be found guilty^H816: he will smite^H6202 their altars^H4196, he will destroy^H7703 their pillars^H4676. 3Surely now shall they say^H559, We have no king^H4428; for we fear^H3372 not Jehovah^H3068; and the king^H4428, what can he do^H6213 for us? 4They speak^H1696 vain words^H1697, swearing^H422 falsely^H7723 in making^H3772 covenants^H1285: therefore judgment^H4941 springeth up^H6524 as hemlock^H7219 in the furrows^H8525 of the field^H7704. 5The inhabitants^H7934 of Samaria^H8111 shall be in terror^H1481 for the calves^H5697 of Beth-aven^H1007; for the people^H5971 thereof shall mourn^H56 over it, and the priests^H3649 thereof that rejoiced^H1523 over it, for the glory^H3519 thereof, because it is departed^H1540 from it. 6It also shall be carried^H2986 unto Assyria^H804 for a present^H4503 to king^H4428 Jareb^H3377: Ephraim^H669 shall receive^H3947 shame^H1317, and Israel^H3478 shall be ashamed^H954 of his own counsel^H6098. 7As for Samaria^H8111, her king^H4428 is cut off^H1820, as foam^H7110 upon^H6440 the water^H4325. 8The high places^H1116 also of Aven^H206, the sin^H2403 of Israel^H3478, shall be destroyed^H8045: the thorn^H6975 and the thistle^H1863 shall come up^H5927 on their altars^H4196; and they shall say^H559 to the mountains^H2022, Cover^H3680 us; and to the hills^H1389, Fall^H5307 on us. 9O Israel^H3478, thou hast sinned^H2398 from the days^H3117 of Gibeah^H1390: there they stood^H5975; the battle^H4421 against the children^H1121 of iniquity^H5932 doth not overtake^H5381 them in Gibeah^H1390. 10When it is my desire^H185, I will chastise^H3256 them; and the peoples^H5971 shall be gathered^H622 against them, when they are bound^H631 to their two^H8147 transgressions^H5869. 11And Ephraim^H669 is a heifer^H5697 that is taught^H3925, that loveth^H157 to tread out^H1758 the grain; but I have passed over^H5674 upon her fair^H2898 neck^H6677: I will set a rider^H7392 on Ephraim^H669; Judah^H3063 shall plow^H2790, Jacob^H3290 shall break his clods^H7702. 12Sow^H2232 to yourselves in^H6310 righteousness^H6666, reap^H7114 according to kindness^H2617; break up^H5214 your fallow ground^H5215; for it is time^H6256 to seek^H1875 Jehovah^H3068, till he come^H935 and rain^H3384 righteousness^H6664 upon you. 13Ye have plowed^H2790 wickedness^H7562, ye have reaped^H7114 iniquity^H5766; ye have eaten^H398 the fruit^H6529 of lies^H3585; for thou didst trust^H982 in thy way^H1870, in the multitude^H7230 of thy mighty men^H1368. 14Therefore shall a tumult^H7588 arise^H6965 among thy people^H5971, and all thy fortresses^H4013 shall be destroyed^H7703, as Shalman^H8020 destroyed^H7701 Beth-arbel^H1009 in the day^H3117 of battle^H4421: the mother^H517 was dashed in pieces^H7376 with her children^H1121. 15So^H3602 shall Beth-el^H1008 do^H6213 unto you because^H6440 of your great^H7451 wickedness^H7451: at daybreak^H7837 shall the king^H4428 of Israel^H3478 be utterly^H1820 cut off^H1820.
