Contemporary English Version
Hosea 8:4-6
Contemporary English Version
4 You chose kings and leaders
without consulting me;
you made silver and gold idols
that led to your downfall.
5 City of Samaria, I'm angry
because of your idol
in the shape of a calf.
When will you ever
be innocent again?
6 Someone from Israel built
that idol for you,
but only I am God.
And so it will be smashed
to pieces.[a]
Footnotes
- 8.6 smashed to pieces: Or “destroyed by fire.”
