Hosea 8:3-5
New International Reader's Version
3 But they have turned away from what is good.
So an enemy will chase them.
4 My people appoint kings I do not want.
They choose princes without my permission.
They use their silver and gold
to make statues of gods.
That is how they destroy themselves.”
5 The Lord says, “People of Samaria,
throw out your god that looks like a calf!
I am very angry with them.
How long will it be until they are able
to remain faithful to me?
Hosea 8:3-5
New International Version
3 But Israel has rejected what is good;
an enemy will pursue him.(A)
4 They set up kings without my consent;
they choose princes without my approval.(B)
With their silver and gold
they make idols(C) for themselves
to their own destruction.
5 Samaria, throw out your calf-idol!(D)
My anger burns against them.
How long will they be incapable of purity?(E)
