Hosea 5:4-6
Contemporary English Version
Hosea 5:4-6
Contemporary English Version
4 Your evil deeds are the reason
you won't return to me,
your Lord God.
And your constant craving for sex
keeps you from knowing me.
5 Israel, your pride
testifies to your guilt;
it makes you stumble,
and Judah stumbles too.
6 You offer sheep and cattle
as sacrifices to me,
but I have turned away
and refuse to be found.
Hosea 5:4-6
New International Version
Hosea 5:4-6
New International Version
4 “Their deeds do not permit them
to return(A) to their God.
A spirit of prostitution(B) is in their heart;
they do not acknowledge(C) the Lord.
5 Israel’s arrogance testifies(D) against them;
the Israelites, even Ephraim, stumble(E) in their sin;
Judah also stumbles with them.(F)
6 When they go with their flocks and herds
to seek the Lord,(G)
they will not find him;
he has withdrawn(H) himself from them.
