Hosea 13:2-4
Names of God Bible
Hosea 13:2-4
Names of God Bible
2 They keep on sinning more and more.
They make idols from silver for themselves.
These idols are skillfully made.
All of them are the work of craftsmen.
People say this about the Israelites: “They offer human sacrifices
and kiss calf-shaped idols.”
3 That is why they will be like fog in the morning
and like morning dew that disappears quickly.
They will be like straw blown away from threshing floors.[a]
They will be like smoke rising from chimneys.
4 “I am Yahweh your Elohim. I brought you out of Egypt.
You have known no god besides me.
There is no savior except me.
