Hosea 4:15-19

"Though you play the whore,
O Israel,
do not let Judah become guilty,
Do not enter into Gilgal,
or go up to Beth-aven,
and do not swear, "As the
Lord lives."
Like a stubborn heifer,
Israel is stubborn;
can the Lord now feed them
like a lamb in broad pasture?

Ephraim is joined to idols -
let him alone.
When their drinking is ended,
they indulge in sexual
orgies;
they love lewdness more than
their glory.
A wind has wrapped them in
its wings,
and they shall be ashamed
because of thier altars."
