Hosea 7:4-7

English Standard Version

^4 (A)They are all adulterers;
    they are like a heated oven
whose baker ceases to stir the fire,
    from the kneading of the dough
    until it is leavened.
⁵ On the day of ^(B)our king, the princes
    became sick with the heat of wine;
    he stretched out his hand with mockers.
⁶ For with hearts like an oven ^(C)they approach their intrigue;
    all night their anger smolders;
    in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
⁷ All of them are hot as an oven,
    and they devour their rulers.
All ^(D)their kings ^(E)have fallen,
    and none of them calls upon me.
