Hosea 7:3-7
World English Bible
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness,
and the princes with their lies.
4 They are all adulterers.
They are burning like an oven that the baker stops stirring,
from the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
5 On the day of our king, the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine.
He joined his hand with mockers.
6 For they have prepared their heart like an oven,
while they lie in wait.
Their baker sleeps all the night.
In the morning it burns as a flaming fire.
7 They are all hot as an oven,
and devour their judges.
All their kings have fallen.
There is no one among them who calls to me.

From the time the dough is kneaded until it is leavened.
5 On the [b]day of our king, the officials (E)became sick with the heat of wine;
He stretched out his hand with [c](F)scoffers,

As they approach their [d]plotting;
Their [e]anger [f]smolders all night,
In the morning it burns like flaming fire.

And they consume their (H)rulers;
All their kings have fallen.
(I)None of them calls on Me.
