Hosea 8:11 - 8:14


11
Since Ephraim has multiplied altars for sin,
They have become altars of sinning for him.
12
Though I wrote for him ten thousand precepts of My law,
They are counted as a strange thing.
13
As for My sacrificial gifts,
They sacrifice the flesh and eat it,
But Yahweh has not accepted them.
Now He will remember their iniquity
And punish them for their sins;
They will return to Egypt.
14
So Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;
And Judah has multiplied fortified cities,
But I will send a fire on its cities that it may consume its palatial dwellings.
