Hosea 7:1-7

Israel's Internal Corruption

Hosea 7:1-7
1
When I heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim will be exposed, as well as the crimes of Samaria. For they practice deceit and thieves break in; bandits raid in the streets.
2
But they fail to consider in their hearts that I remember all their evil. Now their deeds are all around them; they are before My face.
3
They delight the king with their evil, and the princes with their lies.
4
They are all adulterers, like an oven heated by a baker who needs not stoke the fire from the kneading to the rising of the dough.
5
The princes are inflamed with wine on the day of our king; so he joins hands with those who mock him.
6
For they prepare their heart like an oven while they lie in wait; all night their anger smolders; in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
7
All of them are hot as an oven, and they devour their rulers. All their kings fall; not one of them calls upon Me.
