Hosea 7:14-16
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 They do not cry to me from the heart,
but they wail upon their beds;
they gash themselves for grain and wine;
they rebel against me.(A)
15 It was I who trained and strengthened their arms,
yet they plot evil against me.(B)
16 They turn to that which does not profit;[a]
they have become like a defective bow;
their officials shall fall by the sword
because of the rage of their tongue.
So much for their babbling in the land of Egypt.(C)
