strkjv@Hosea:7:16
@ They
return
, but not to the most
High
: they are like a
deceitful
bow
: their
princes
shall
fall
by the
sword
for the
rage
of their
tongue
:
this
shall be their
derision
in the
land
of
Egypt
.
strkjv@Hosea:8:1
@ 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
.
