Hosea 7:3-7
New American Standard Bible
3 (A)With their wickedness they make the (B)king happy,
And the officials with their (C)lies.
4 They are (D)all adulterers,
Like an oven heated by the baker,
Who stops [a]stoking the fire
From the time the dough is kneaded until it is leavened.
5 On the [b]day of our king, the officials (E)became sick with the heat of wine;
He stretched out his hand with [c](F)scoffers,
6 For their hearts are like an (G)oven
As they approach their [d]plotting;
Their [e]anger [f]smolders all night,
In the morning it burns like flaming fire.
7 All of them are hot like an oven,
And they consume their (H)rulers;
All their kings have fallen.
(I)None of them calls on Me.
Hosea 7:3-7
International Standard Version
3 They please the king with their evil,
and the princes with their dishonesty.
4 All of them are adulterers—
they burn like an oven prepared by the baker,
who has ceased stoking it
until the dough is leavened.
5 “On the king’s festival day
the princes got drunk from wine,
so the king[a] joined the mockers.
6 For they have stirred up themselves[b] like an oven
as they lie in ambush.
Their baker sleeps through the night;
in the morning, the oven[c] will be blazing like a fire.
7 They all burn like an oven;
they have consumed their judges;
all their kings have fallen—
not even one of them calls on me.
Hosea 7:3-7
New International Version
3 “They delight the king with their wickedness,
the princes with their lies.(A)
4 They are all adulterers,(B)
burning like an oven
whose fire the baker need not stir
from the kneading of the dough till it rises.
5 On the day of the festival of our king
the princes become inflamed with wine,(C)
and he joins hands with the mockers.(D)
6 Their hearts are like an oven;(E)
they approach him with intrigue.
Their passion smolders all night;
in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
7 All of them are hot as an oven;
they devour their rulers.
All their kings fall,(F)
and none of them calls(G) on me.
