Hosea 8:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 I have written to them the great things of my Law: but they were counted as a [a]strange thing.
13 They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it: but the [b]Lord accepteth them not: now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
14 For Israel hath forgotten his maker, and buildeth Temples, and Judah hath increased strong cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
