Hosea 7:14-16

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁴ They do not cry to Me from their heart, but they wail upon their beds; they gash and distress and assemble themselves [in mourning] for grain and new wine; they rebel against Me.

¹⁵ Although I have chastened them and trained and strengthened their arms, yet they think and devise evil against Me.

¹⁶ They turn back, shift, or change, but not upwards [to the Most High]. They are like a deceitful bow; their princes shall fall by the sword for the insolence and rage of their tongue. This shall be [cause for] their derision and scorning in the land of Egypt.
