Hosea 4:14-16

International Standard Version

¹⁴However, I’m not going to punish your daughters
    when they commit prostitution,
nor your daughters-in-law
    when they commit adultery,
because their men are themselves immoral—
    they offer sacrifices with prostitutes.
These people who aren’t discerning will stumble.

¹⁵“Even though you prostitute yourself, Israel—
    let not Judah incur guilt—
don’t go to Gilgal,
    or visit Beth-aven,
        or swear an oath using the Lord’s name.^[a]
¹⁶For Israel is as obstinate as a stubborn mule!^[b]
    Nevertheless, will not the Lord feed them like a lamb in a broad pasture?
