New Testament

Hosea 4:15-19 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

15. ‘Though you, Israel, commit adultery,do not let Judah become guilty.‘Do not go to Gilgal;do not go up to Beth Aven.And do not swear, “As surely as the Lord lives!”

16. The Israelites are stubborn,like a stubborn heifer.How then can the Lord pasture themlike lambs in a meadow?

17. Ephraim is joined to idols;leave him alone!

18. Even when their drinks are gone,they continue their prostitution;their rulers dearly love shameful ways.

19. A whirlwind will sweep them away,and their sacrifices will bring them shame.
