Hosea 10:12-14

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹²Sow righteousness for yourselves^(A)
and reap faithful love;
break up your unplowed ground.^(B)
It is time to seek the Lord^(C)
until He comes^(D) and sends righteousness
on you like the rain.^(E)

¹³You have plowed wickedness and reaped injustice;^(F)
you have eaten the fruit of lies.^(G)
Because you have trusted in your own way^[a]
and in your large number of soldiers,^(H)
¹⁴the roar of battle will rise against your people,
and all your fortifications will be demolished^(I)
in a day of war,
like Shalman’s destruction of Beth-arbel.
Mothers will be dashed to pieces
along with their children.^(J)
