Ephraim's Idolatry

Hos 13:1When Ephraim spoke, there was terror; he was exalted in Israel, but he became guilty by worshiping Baal and died.

Hos 13:2

Hos 13:2Even now they persist in sin! They make metal images for themselves, idols that they skillfully fashion from their own silver; all of them are nothing but the work of craftsmen! There is a saying about them: "Those who sacrifice to the calf idol are calf kissers!"

Hos 13:3

Hos 13:3Therefore they will disappear like the morning mist, like early morning dew that evaporates, like chaff that is blown away from a threshing floor, like smoke that disappears through an open window.

Hos 13:5

Hos 13:5I cared for you in the wilderness, in the dry desert where no water was.

Hos 13:7

Hos 13:7So I will pounce on them like a lion; like a leopard I will lurk by the path.

Hos 13:8

Hos 13:8I will attack them like a bear robbed of her cubs - I will rip open their chests. I will devour them there like a lion - like a wild animal would tear them apart.

Hos 13:9

Hos 13:9I will destroy you, O Israel! Who is there to help you?

Hos 13:10

Hos 13:10Where then is your king, that he may save you in all your cities? Where are your rulers for whom you asked, saying, "Give me a king and princes"?

Hos 13:11

Hos 13:11I granted you a king in my anger, and I will take him away in my wrath!

Hos 13:12

Hos 13:12The punishment of Ephraim has been decreed; his punishment is being stored up for the future.

Hos 13:13

Hos 13:13The labor pains of a woman will overtake him, but the baby will lack wisdom; when the time arrives, he will not come out of the womb!

Hos 13:14

Hos 13:14Will I deliver them from the power of Sheol? No, I will not! Will I redeem them from death? No, I will not! O Death, bring on your plagues! O Sheol, bring on your destruction! My eyes will not show any compassion!

Hos 13:15

Hos 13:15Even though he flourishes like a reed plant, a scorching east wind will come, a wind from the LORD rising up from the desert. As a result, his spring will dry up; his well will become dry. That wind will spoil all his delightful foods in the containers in his storehouse.

Hos 13:16

Hos 13:16(14:1) Samaria will be held guilty, because she rebelled against her God. They will fall by the sword, their infants will be dashed to the ground - their pregnant women will be ripped open.
