Hosea 8:11-13

New American Standard Bible

¹¹Since Ephraim has ^(A)multiplied altars for sin,
They have become altars of sinning for him.
¹²Though ^(B)I wrote for him ten thousand precepts of My ^(C)Law,
They are regarded as a strange thing.
¹³As for My ^(D)sacrificial gifts,
They ^(E)sacrifice the flesh and eat it,
But the Lord has taken no delight in them.
Now He will ^(F)remember their guilt,
And ^(G)punish them for their sins;
They will return to ^(H)Egypt.
