Hosea 4




jub@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear [the] word of the LORD, [ye] sons of Israel; for the LORD contends with the inhabitants of the land because [there is] no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the earth.

jub@Hosea:4:2 @ By swearing and lying and murdering and stealing and committing adultery, they prevailed, and blood touches blood.

jub@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore the earth shall mourn, and every one that dwells therein shall be cut off, with the beasts of the field and the fowls of heaven; and even the fishes of the sea shall be caught.

jub@Hosea:4:4 @ Certainly man [does] not contend [with] nor reprehend man; for thy people [are] as those that resist the priest.

jub@Hosea:4:5 @ Therefore thou shalt fall in the day, and the prophet shall also fall with thee by night, and I will cut off thy mother.

jub@Hosea:4:6 @ My people were cut off because they lacked wisdom; because thou hast rejected wisdom, I will cast thee out of the priesthood; [seeing] thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy sons.

jub@Hosea:4:7 @ According to their greatness, so did they sin against me; [therefore] I will change their honour into shame.

jub@Hosea:4:8 @ They eat up the sin of my people, and in their iniquity they raise up their soul.

jub@Hosea:4:9 @ The people shall become like the priest; and I will visit his ways upon him, and they shall reward him according to his doings.

jub@Hosea:4:10 @ For they shall eat and not be satisfied; they shall commit whoredom and shall not increase because they have quit showing hospitality unto the LORD.

jub@Hosea:4:11 @ Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.

jub@Hosea:4:12 @ My people ask counsel of their wooden [idol], and their stick declares unto them; for the spirit of whoredoms has caused [them] to err, and they have gone a whoring under their gods.

jub@Hosea:4:13 @ They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, that had good shade; therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your daughters-in-law shall commit adultery.

jub@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not visit upon your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor upon your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery: for they offer with whores, and they sacrifice with [cult] prostitutes; therefore the people without understanding shall fall.

jub@Hosea:4:15 @ Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, [yet] let not Judah be guilty; and do not come unto Gilgal, neither go up to Bethaven, nor swear, The LORD lives

jub@Hosea:4:16 @ for Israel has turned away as a wild heifer; shall the LORD now feed them as rams in a large place?

jub@Hosea:4:17 @ Ephraim [is] given over to idols; leave him.

jub@Hosea:4:18 @ Their drink has become corrupted; they have committed whoredom continually; her princes love gifts, shamefully.

jub@Hosea:4:19 @ The wind has bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.:
