Hosea 7:14-16
New International Version
14 They do not cry out to me from their hearts(A)
but wail on their beds.
They slash themselves,[a] appealing to their gods
for grain and new wine,(B)
but they turn away from me.(C)
15 I trained(D) them and strengthened their arms,
but they plot evil(E) against me.
16 They do not turn to the Most High;(F)
they are like a faulty bow.(G)
Their leaders will fall by the sword
because of their insolent(H) words.
For this they will be ridiculed(I)
in the land of Egypt.(J)

Hosea 7:14-16
King James Version
14 And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me.
15 Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.
16 They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
