Hosea 2:12

Israel's Adultery Rebuked

¹¹ And I will put an end to all her joy, her feasts, her new moons, and her Sabbaths, and all her regular meetings. ¹² And I will make waste her vines and her fig-trees, of which she has said, These are the payments which my lovers have made to me; and I will make them a waste of trees, and the beasts of the field will take them for food. ¹³ And I will give her punishment for the days of the Baals, to whom she has been burning perfumes, when she made herself fair with her nose-rings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, giving no thought to me, says the Lord.
