Hosea 7:15

Ephraim's Guilt

¹⁴ And they have not cried to Me with their heart, when they howled on their beds; they gather themselves for grain and wine, and they rebel against Me. ¹⁵ Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet they think evil against Me. ¹⁶ They return, but not to the Most High. They are like a deceitful bow; their rulers shall fall by the sword from the rage of their tongue. This shall be their scorn in the land of Egypt.
