Hosea 7:4-6

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁴ They are all adulterers;
    they are like a heated oven,
whose baker does not need to stir the fire,
    from the kneading of the dough until it is leavened.
⁵ On the day of our king the officials
    became sick with the heat of wine;
    he stretched out his hand with mockers.
⁶ For they are kindled^[a] like an oven, their heart burns within them;
    all night their anger smoulders;
    in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
