Hosea 8:10-12
The Voice

10     But because they paid tribute money to other nations instead of depending on Me,
        I’m going to gather them up and send them into exile,
    And they will struggle for a time
        beneath the burden imposed by the great king of princes.[a]

11     Even though Ephraim built many altars to cover sin,
        they’ve all become places where he commits sin!
12     It wouldn’t matter how many copies of My law I wrote for him;
        he’d treat them all as something strange and foreign.

    these have become altars for sinning.(C)
12 I wrote for them the many things of my law,
    but they regarded them as something foreign.(D)
