Hosea 8:4-6
English Standard Version
4 (A)They made kings, (B)but not through me.
They set up princes, but I knew it not.
With their silver and gold they made idols
for their own destruction.
5 (C)I have[a] spurned your calf, O Samaria.
My anger burns against them.
(D)How long will they be incapable of innocence?
6 For it is from Israel;
a craftsman made it;
it is not God.
(E)The calf of Samaria
(F)shall be broken to pieces.[b]
