Hosea 10:13-15
International Standard Version
13 You have plowed[a] evil;
you have reaped unrighteousness;
you have eaten the fruit of hypocrisy;
because you trusted in your own direction,
and in the number of your mighty forces.
14 Therefore a disaster will come upon your people,
and all of your fortresses will be ruined.
As Shalman[b] destroyed Beth-arbel in wartime,
mothers were[c] dashed to pieces
along with their children.
15 The same will happen to you, Bethel,
because of your great evil—
early one morning the king of Israel will be totally silenced.”

New International Version
13 But you have planted wickedness,
you have reaped evil,(A)
you have eaten the fruit of deception.(B)
Because you have depended on your own strength
and on your many warriors,(C)
14 the roar of battle will rise against your people,
so that all your fortresses will be devastated(D)—
as Shalman(E) devastated Beth Arbel on the day of battle,
when mothers were dashed to the ground with their children.(F)
15 So will it happen to you, Bethel,
because your wickedness is great.
When that day dawns,
the king of Israel will be completely destroyed.(G)
