Hosea 10:3-4
International Standard Version
3 From now on they will say,
‘We have no king,
because we did not fear the Lord—
and what would a king do for us?’
4 Their word is falsely given
as they make their agreements;[a]
so judgment springs up
like poisonous weeds in the furrows of a field.[b]

Lexham English Bible
3 For now they will say,
“We have no king;
indeed, we did not fear Yahweh,
and what can a king do for us?”
4 They utter words of vain oaths
when making covenants,[a]
and judgment blossoms like a poisonous plant
on the furrows of the field.
