Hosea 4:15-17
Revised Standard Version
15 Though you play the harlot, O Israel,
let not Judah become guilty.
Enter not into Gilgal,
nor go up to Beth-a′ven,
and swear not, “As the Lord lives.”
16 Like a stubborn heifer,
Israel is stubborn;
can the Lord now feed them
like a lamb in a broad pasture?
17 E′phraim is joined to idols,
let him alone.
Hosea 4:15-17
New International Version
15 “Though you, Israel, commit adultery,
do not let Judah become guilty.
