Hosea 2:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her Sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts.
12 And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my lovers have given me: and I will make them as a forest, and the wild beasts shall eat them.
13 And I will visit upon her the days of [a]Baal, wherein she burnt incense to them: and she decked herself with her [b]earrings and her jewels, and she followed her lovers, and forgot me, saith the Lord.
