'Whoredom' in the Bible

When Jehovah spake at the first by Hosea, Jehovah said unto Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredom and children of whoredom; for the land doth commit great whoredom, departing from Jehovah.

Yea, upon her children will I have no mercy; for they are children of whoredom;

Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the understanding.

My people ask counsel at their stock, and their staff declareth unto them; for the spirit of whoredom hath caused them to err, and they have played the harlot, departing from under their God.

Their doings will not suffer them to turn unto their God; for the spirit of whoredom is within them, and they know not Jehovah.

In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing: there whoredom is found in Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
