Hosea 4:10-12
International Standard Version
Hosea 4:10-12
International Standard Version
10 They will eat,
but will not be satisfied.
They will engage in prostitution,
but they won’t increase,
because they have stopped listening to the Lord.
11 “Sexual immorality, wine, and fresh wine seduce the heart of my people.[a]
12 My people seek counsel from their piece of wood,
and their diviner’s rod[b] speaks to them.
For a spirit of prostitution causes them to go astray;
in their immorality they desert their God.
