Hosea 4:10-12
English Standard Version
10 (A)They shall eat, but not be satisfied;
they shall play the whore, but not multiply,
because they have forsaken the Lord
to cherish 11 whoredom, wine, and new wine,
which (B)take away the understanding.
12 My people (C)inquire of a piece of wood,
and their walking staff gives them oracles.
For (D)a spirit of whoredom has led them astray,
and they have left their God to play the whore.
Hosea 4:10-12
New International Version
10 “They will eat but not have enough;(A)
they will engage in prostitution(B) but not flourish,
because they have deserted(C) the Lord
to give themselves 11 to prostitution;(D)
old wine(E) and new wine
take away their understanding.(F)
12 My people consult a wooden idol,(G)
and a diviner’s rod speaks to them.(H)
A spirit of prostitution(I) leads them astray;(J)
they are unfaithful(K) to their God.
Hosea 4:10-12
King James Version
10 For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
11 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
12 My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
