Hosea 7:4-6
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 They are all adulterers;
they are like a heated oven
whose baker does not need to stir the fire
from the kneading of the dough until it is leavened.(A)
5 On the day of our king the officials
became sick with the heat of wine;
he stretched out his hand with mockers.(B)
6 For they are kindled[a] like an oven; their heart burns within them;
all night their anger smolders;
in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
