Hosea 10:2-4
The Voice
2 But they aren’t loyal to God in their hearts, and now they’ll pay the penalty:
the Eternal will break apart their altars and smash their sacred pillars.
3 Then they’ll say, “We don’t have our own king anymore
because we didn’t fear the Eternal One.
But even if we still had a king, what could he do for us?”
A nation without a functioning king is no nation at all.
4 They speak a lot of sensible words,
but their oaths are insincere, and their covenant promises are empty.
This is why the king’s judgment sprouts up like poisonous weeds in a plowed field.
