Hosea 10
Israel is reproved and threatened for their impiety and idolatry.
10:1
Israel 3478 is a luxuriant 1238a vine 1612; He produces 7737b fruit 6529 for himself. The more 7230 his fruit 6529, The more 7235a altars 4196 he made 7235a; The richer 2896b his land 776, The better 3190 he made 3190 the [sacred] pillars 4676.
10:2
Their heart 3820 is faithless 2505b; Now 6258 they must bear 816 their guilt 816. The LORD will break 6202 down 6202 their altars 4196 [And] destroy 7703 their [sacred] pillars 4676.
10:3
¶ Surely 3588 now 6258 they will say 559, “We have 369 no 369 king 4428, For we do not revere 3372a the LORD 3068. As for the king 4428, what 4100 can he do 6213a for us?”
10:4
They speak 1696 [mere] words 1697, With worthless 7723 oaths 422 they make 3772 covenants 1285; And judgment 4941 sprouts 6524a like poisonous 7219 weeds 7219 in the furrows 8525 of the field 7706a.
10:5
The inhabitants 7934 of Samaria 8111 will fear 1481c For the calf 5697 of Beth-aven 1007b. Indeed 3588, its people 5971a will mourn 56 for it, And its idolatrous 3649 priests 3649 will cry 1523 out over 5921 it, Over 5921 its glory 3519b, since 3588 it has departed 1540 from it.
10:6
The thing itself 1571 will be carried 2986 to Assyria 804b As tribute 4503 to King 4428 Jareb 3377; Ephraim 669 will be seized 3947 with shame 1317 And Israel 3478 will be ashamed 954 of its own counsel 6098.
10:7
Samaria 8111 will be cut 1820 off 1820 [with] her king 4428 Like a stick 7110b on the surface 6440 of the water 4325.
10:8
Also the high 1116 places 1116 of Aven 206, the sin 2398 of Israel 3478, will be destroyed 8045; Thorn 6975 and thistle 1863 will grow 5927 on their altars 4196; Then they will say 559 to the mountains 2022, “Cover 3680 us!” And to the hills 1389, “Fall 5307 on us!”
10:9
From the days 3117 of Gibeah 1390 you have sinned 2398, O Israel 3478; There 8033 they stand 5975! Will not the battle 4421 against 5921 the sons 1121 of iniquity 5767b overtake 5381 them in Gibeah 1390?
10:10
When it is My desire 185, I will chastise 3256 them; And the peoples 5971a will be gathered 622 against 5921 them When they are bound 631 for their double 8147 guilt 5772a.
10:11
¶ Ephraim 669 is a trained 3925 heifer 5697 that loves 157 to thresh 1758, But I will come 5674a over 5921 her fair 2898 neck 6677 [with a yoke]; I will harness 7392 Ephraim 669, Judah 3063 will plow 2790a, Jacob 3290 will harrow 7702 for himself.
10:12
Sow 2232 with a view to righteousness 6666, Reap 7114b in accordance 6310 with kindness 2617a; Break 5214 up your fallow 5215b ground 5215b, For it is time 6256 to seek 1875 the LORD 3068 Until 5704 He comes 935 to rain 3384 righteousness 6664 on you.
10:13
You have plowed 2790a wickedness 7562, you have reaped 7114b injustice 5767b, You have eaten 398 the fruit 6529 of lies 3585. Because 3588 you have trusted 982 in your way 1870, in your numerous 7230 warriors 1368,
10:14
Therefore a tumult 7588 will arise 6965 among your people 5971a, And all 3605 your fortresses 4013 will be destroyed 7703, As Shalman 8020 destroyed 7701 Beth-arbel 1009 on the day 3117 of battle 4421, [When] mothers 517 were dashed 7376 in pieces 7376 with [their] children 1121.
10:15
Thus 3602 it will be done 6213a to you at Bethel 1008 because 4480 6440 of your great 7463a wickedness 7463a. At dawn 7837 the king 4428 of Israel 3478 will be completely 1820 cut 1820 off 1820.
