Hosea 8
1 To mouth your a horn like eagle over [the] house of Yahweh because they have transgressed covenant my and on law my they have rebelled.
[He shall come] into their midst as the land, as an eagle against the house of the Lord, because they have transgressed my covenant, and have sinned against my law.
2 To me they cry out O God my we know you Israel.
They shall soon cry out to me, [saying], O God, we know thee.
3 It has rejected Israel good an enemy he will pursue him.
For Israel has turned away from good things; they have pursued an enemy.
4 They they have made kings and not from me they have installed leaders and not I knew silver their and gold their they have made for themselves idols so that it may be cut off.
They have made kings for themselves, but not by me: they have ruled, but they did not make it known to me: [of] their silver and their gold they have made images to themselves, that they might be destroyed.
5 He has rejected calf your O Samaria it has burned anger my on them until when? not will they be able innocence.
Cast off thy calf, O Samaria; mine anger is kindled against them: how long will they be unable to purge themselves in Israel?
6 For [are] from Israel and it a craftsman he made it and not [is] God it for fragments it will become [the] calf of Samaria.
Whereas the workman made it, and it is not God; wherefore thy calf, Samaria, was a deceiver:
7 For a wind they sow and a storm-wind they will reap standing grain not [belongs] to it growth not it will produce flour perhaps it will produce strangers they will swallow it.
for they sowed blighted [seed], and their destruction shall await them, a sheaf of corn that avails not to make meal; and even if it should produce it, strangers shall devour it.
8 It will be swallowed Israel now they are among the nations like a vessel [which] there not [is] pleasure in it.
Israel is swallowed up: now is he become among the nations as a worthless vessel.
9 For they they have gone up Assyria a wild donkey isolated to itself Ephraim they have hired (lovers *L(abh)*)
For they have gone up to the Assyrians: Ephraim has been strengthened against himself; they loved gifts.
10 also for they will hire among the nations now I will gather them and they have begun a few from [the] burden of a king princes.
Therefore shall they be delivered to the nations: now I will receive them, and they shall cease a little to anoint a king and princes.
11 For he has multiplied Ephraim altars for sinning they have become to him altars for sinning.
Because Ephraim has multiplied altars, [his] beloved altars are become sins to him.
12 (I wrote *Q(k)*) for him ([the] numerous things of *Q(K)*) law my like a strange [thing] they are regarded.
I will write down a multitude [of commands] for him; but his statutes are accounted strange things, [even] the beloved altars.
13 [the] sacrifices of Gifts my they sacrifice flesh and they ate [it] Yahweh not he is pleased with them now he will remember iniquity their so he may punish sins their they Egypt they will return.
For if they should offer a sacrifice, and eat flesh, the lord will not accept them: now will he remember their iniquities, and will take vengeance on their sins: they have returned to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things among the Assyrians.
14 And he has forgotten Israel maker his and he has built palaces and Judah he has multiplied cities fortified and I will send fire on cities his and it will consume fortresses his.
And Israel has forgotten him that made him, and they have built fanes, and Juda has multiplied walled cities: but I will send fire on his cities, and it shall devour their foundations.
