Hosea 7:1-7

Israel's Internal Corruption

Hosea 7:1-7
1
When I would heal Israel, then is the iniquity of Ephraim uncovered, and the wickedness of Samaria; for they commit falsehood, and the thief entereth in, and the troop of robbers ravageth without.
2
And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now have their own doings beset them about; they are before my face.
3
They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
4
They are all adulterers; they are as an oven heated by the baker; he ceaseth to stir the fire, from the kneading of the dough, until it be leavened.
5
On the day of our king the princes made themselves sick with the heat of wine; he stretched out his hand with scoffers.
6
For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
7
They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
