Hosea 8:4-6
Lexham English Bible
4 They appointed kings, but not through me;
they made officials, but without my knowledge.
With their silver and gold
they made idols for themselves
for their[a] own destruction.[b]
5 Your calf is rejected,[c] O Samaria;
my anger burns against them.
How long[d] will they be incapable of innocence?
6 Because it is from Israel,
an artisan made it,
it is not a god;
for the calf of Samaria
will be broken to pieces.
Hosea 8:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 (A)They have set up kings, but not by Me;
They have appointed officials, but I did not know it.
With their (B)silver and gold they have made idols for themselves,
So that [a]they will be eliminated.
5 [b]He has rejected your (C)calf, Samaria, saying,
“My anger burns against them!”
How long will they be incapable of (D)innocence?
6 For from Israel comes even this!
A (E)craftsman made it, so it is not God;
Assuredly, the calf of Samaria will be broken to [c]pieces.
