Hosea 5:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ The leaders of Judah are like thieves.
    They try to steal the property of others.
My punishment will overwhelm them
    like a flood of water.
¹¹ Israel will be crushed by the punishments,
    because they decided to follow idols.
¹² I will destroy Israel
    as a moth destroys clothing.
I will destroy Judah
    as rot destroys wood.
