Hosea 10:1-2
Lexham English Bible
Israel Is Punished
10 Israel is a luxuriant vine;[a]
he yields fruit for himself.
The more his fruit increased,
the more he made numerous altars.
The more his land prospered,
the more he[b] improved[c] his stone pillars.
2 Their heart is false;
now they must bear their guilt.
He himself[d] will break down their altars;
he will destroy their stone pillars.
