Hosea 7:13-16 - The Lord's Second Lament

¹³ Woe be unto them, for they have forsaken me. They must be destroyed, for they have set me at naught. I am he that have redeemed them, and yet they dissemble with me. ¹⁴ They call not upon me with their hearts, but lie howling upon their beds. Whereas they come together, it is but for meat and drink, and me will they not obey. ¹⁵ I have taught them, and defended their army, yet do they imagine mischief against me. ¹⁶ They turn themselves, but not aright, and are become as a broken bow. Their princes shall be slain with the sword for the malice of their tongues, such blasphemies have they learned in the land of Egypt.
