Hosea 4:11-13
International Standard Version
Hosea 4:11-13
International Standard Version
11 “Sexual immorality, wine, and fresh wine seduce the heart of my people.[a]
12 My people seek counsel from their piece of wood,
and their diviner’s rod[b] speaks to them.
For a spirit of prostitution causes them to go astray;
in their immorality they desert their God.
13 They offer sacrifices on the mountain tops,
burning offerings on the hills,
under oaks, poplars, and terebinth[c] trees,
since their shade is very good.
Therefore your daughters are prostitutes
and your daughters-in-law commit adultery.
