Hosea 7:13-16
Christian Standard Bible
The Lord’s Second Lament
13 Woe to them,(A) for they fled from me;(B)
destruction to them, for they rebelled against me!
Though I want to redeem them,(C)
they speak lies against me.
14 They do not cry to me from their hearts;
rather, they wail on their beds.
They slash themselves[a](D) for grain and new wine;(E)
they turn away from me.
15 I trained and strengthened their arms,(F)
but they plot evil against me.(G)
16 They turn, but not to what is above;[b]
they are like a faulty bow.(H)
Their leaders will fall by the sword
because of their insolent tongue.(I)
They will be ridiculed for this in the land of Egypt.(J)
Hosea 7:13-16
Common English Bible
13 Doom to them, for they have strayed from me;
destruction will be their lot because they have rebelled against me.
I would redeem them,
but they speak lies against me.
14 They don’t cry to me from the heart,
but they sob upon their beds;
they fight[a] over grain and wine;
they resist me.
15 It was I who gave them their strength,
yet they plot evil against me.
16 They return, but not to the Most High;[b]
they have become like a worthless bow;
their officials will fall by the sword
because of the rage of their tongues;
in Egypt they will make fun of them.[c]
