Hosea 12:12-Hosea 13:3 - Further Indictment Of Jacob's Heirs
12 Jacob fled into the land of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep. 13 By a prophet the LORD brought them out of Egypt, and by a prophet he preserved them.
14 But Ephraim hath provoked him to displeasure through his abominations; therefore shall his blood be poured upon himself, and the LORD his God shall reward him his blasphemies.
1 The abomination of Ephraim is come also into Israel. He is gone back to Baal, therefore must he die.
2 And now they sin more and more. Of their silver, they make them molten Images, like the idols of the Heathen, and yet all is nothing but the work of the craftsmen. Notwithstanding they preach of the same: whoso will kiss the calves, offereth to men. 3 Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away, and like as dust that the wind taketh away from the floor, and as smoke that goeth out of the chimney.
