Israel’s Sin and Captivity

10 Israel is a fertile vine
    that brings forth its fruit.
As his fruit multiplied,
    so his altars increased;
as his land prospered,
    so he[a] improved his pillars.
Their heart is divided;
    now they must bear their guilt.
He will break down their altars
    and destroy their pillars.

  1. Hosea 10:1 Heb. they.

10 Israel is an empty vine,
he bringeth forth fruit unto himself:
according to the multitude of his fruit
he hath increased the altars;
according to the goodness of his land
they have made goodly images.
Their heart is divided;
now shall they be found faulty:
he shall break down their altars,
he shall spoil their images.
