Hosea 12:7-11
Legacy Standard Bible
7 A [a]merchant, in whose hands are deceptive (A)balances,
He loves to oppress.
8 And Ephraim said, “Surely I have become (B)rich;
I have found wealth for myself;
In all my labors they will find in me
(C)No iniquity, which would be sin.”
9 But I have been Yahweh your God since the land of Egypt;
I will make you (D)settle in tents again,
As in the days of the appointed festival.
10 And I have spoken to the (E)prophets,
And I [b]made visions abound,
And by the hand of the prophets I gave (F)parables.
11 Is there wickedness in Gilead?
Surely they are worthless.
In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls;
Yes, (G)their altars are like the stone heaps
Beside the furrows of the field.

Hosea 12:7-11
New King James Version
7 “A cunning [a]Canaanite!
(A)Deceitful scales are in his hand;
He loves to oppress.
8 And Ephraim said,
(B)‘Surely I have become rich,
I have found wealth for myself;
In all my labors
They shall find in me no iniquity that is sin.’
9 “But I am the Lord your God,
Ever since the land of Egypt;
(C)I will again make you dwell in tents,
As in the days of the appointed feast.
10 (D)I have also spoken by the prophets,
And have multiplied visions;
I have given [b]symbols [c]through the witness of the prophets.”
11 Though (E)Gilead has idols—
Surely they are [d]vanity—
Though they sacrifice bulls in (F)Gilgal,
Indeed their altars shall be heaps in the furrows of the field.
