Hosea 13:2-4
BRG Bible
2 And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, and idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.
3 Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away, as the chaff that is driven with the whirlwind out of the floor, and as the smoke out of the chimney.
4 Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.

Hosea 13:2-4
New International Version
2 Now they sin more and more;
they make(A) idols for themselves from their silver,(B)
cleverly fashioned images,
all of them the work of craftsmen.(C)
It is said of these people,
“They offer human sacrifices!
They kiss[a](D) calf-idols!(E)”
3 Therefore they will be like the morning mist,
like the early dew that disappears,(F)
like chaff(G) swirling from a threshing floor,(H)
like smoke(I) escaping through a window.
