God’s Deliverance and Impending Judgment
Hosea 12:9-14
9
"But I am ADONAI your God, from the land of Egypt. Again I will make you live in tents, as in the days of the established festival.
10
I have spoken to the prophets; it was I who gave vision after vision; through the prophets I gave examples to show what it would all be like.
11
Is Gil'ad given to iniquity? Yes, they have become worthless. In Gilgal they sacrifice to bulls; therefore their altars are like piles of stones in a plowed field."
12
Ya'akov fled to the land of Aram. There Isra'el slaved to win a wife; for a wife he tended sheep.
13
By a prophet ADONAI brought Isra'el up from Egypt, and by a prophet he was protected.
14
Efrayim has given bitter provocation, so the penalty for his bloodshed will be thrown down on him, and his Lord will repay him for his insult.
