< 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.
2 To me they cry out O God my we know you Israel.
3 It has rejected Israel good an enemy he will pursue him.
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.
5 He has rejected calf your O Samaria it has burned anger my on them until when? not will they be able innocence.
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.
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.
8 It will be swallowed Israel now they are among the nations like a vessel [which] there not [is] pleasure in it.
9 For they they have gone up Assyria a wild donkey isolated to itself Ephraim they have hired (lovers *L(abh)*)
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.
11 For he has multiplied Ephraim altars for sinning they have become to him altars for sinning.
12 (I wrote *Q(k)*) for him ([the] numerous things of *Q(K)*) law my like a strange [thing] they are regarded.
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.
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.
