Hosea 7:3-7

Legacy Standard Bible

^3 (A)With their evil they make the ^(B)king glad,
And the princes with their ^(C)deceptions.
⁴ They are ^(D)all adulterers,
Like an oven heated by the baker
Who ceases to stir up the fire
From the kneading of the dough until it is leavened.
⁵ On the ^[a]day of our king, the princes ^(E)became sick with the heat of wine;
He stretched out his hand with ^(F)scoffers,
⁶ For their hearts are like an ^(G)oven
As they draw near in their ^[b]plotting;
Their ^[c]anger ^[d]smolders all night;
In the morning it burns like a flaming fire.
⁷ All of them are hot like an oven,
And they devour their ^(H)judges;
All their kings have fallen.
^(I)None of them calls on Me.
