Hosea 10:3-4
Authorized (King James) Version

3 For now they shall say, We have no king,
because we feared not the Lord;
what then should a king do to us?
4 They have spoken words,
swearing falsely in making a covenant:
thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.

Hosea 10:3-4
New International Version

3 Then they will say, “We have no king
    because we did not revere the Lord.
But even if we had a king,
    what could he do for us?”
4 They make many promises,
    take false oaths(A)
    and make agreements;(B)
therefore lawsuits spring up
    like poisonous weeds(C) in a plowed field.
