Hosea 8:12

Israel Rejects The Good

¹¹ Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sin, the altars shall be a sin unto him. ¹² Though I wrote for him ten thousand precepts of My law,
They are regarded as a strange thing.
¹³ In the sacrifices of my gifts they sacrificed flesh and ate; but the LORD does not accept them; now he will remember their iniquity and visit their sins; they shall return to Egypt.
