Hosea 10:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

10 Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth its [material] fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars [to idols]; according to the goodness and prosperity of their land they have made goodly pillars or obelisks [to false gods].

² Their heart is divided and deceitful; now shall they be found guilty and suffer punishment. The Lord will smite and break down [the horns of] their altars; He will destroy their [idolatrous] pillars.

³ Surely now they shall say, We have no [actual] king because we fear not the Lord; and as for the king, what can he do for us?
