Hosea 4:10-12
Modern English Version
10 They will eat, but not be satisfied;
they will play the whore, but not multiply,
because they have forsaken the Lord
by devoting themselves to 11 harlotry;
wine and new wine
take away understanding.
The Idolatry of Israel
12 My people seek counsel from their wood,
and their staff informs them.
For the spirit of harlotry has led them astray,
and they have played the whore in defiance of their God.
Hosea 4:10-12
New International Version
10 “They will eat but not have enough;(A)
they will engage in prostitution(B) but not flourish,
because they have deserted(C) the Lord
to give themselves 11 to prostitution;(D)
old wine(E) and new wine
take away their understanding.(F)
12 My people consult a wooden idol,(G)
and a diviner’s rod speaks to them.(H)
A spirit of prostitution(I) leads them astray;(J)
they are unfaithful(K) to their God.
