Hosea 7:3 - 7:7

3
With their evil they make the king glad,
And the princes with their deceptions.
4
They are all adulterers,
Like an oven heated by the baker
Who ceases to stir up the fire
From the kneading of the dough until it is leavened.
5
On the day of our king, the princes became sick with the heat of wine;
He stretched out his hand with scoffers,
6
For their hearts are like an oven
As they draw near in their plotting;
Their anger smolders all night;
In the morning it burns like a flaming fire.
7
All of them are hot like an oven,
And they devour their judges;
All their kings have fallen.
None of them calls on Me.
