Hosea 7:5-7
Contemporary English Version
5 On the day their king
was crowned,
his officials got him drunk,
and he joined
in their foolishness.[a]
6 Their anger is a fire
that smolders all night,
then flares up at dawn.
7 They are flames
destroying their leaders.
And their kings are powerless;
none of them trust me.
