Hosea 11:12-12:1
New Living Translation
Charges against Israel and Judah
12 [a]Israel surrounds me with lies and deceit,
but Judah still obeys God
and is faithful to the Holy One.[b]
12 [c]The people of Israel[d] feed on the wind;
they chase after the east wind all day long.
They pile up lies and violence;
they are making an alliance with Assyria
while sending olive oil to buy support from Egypt.
