Hosea 8:12

Israel Rejects The Good

¹¹ Because Ephraim did multiply altars to sin, They have been to him altars to sin. ¹² I write for him numerous things of My law, As a strange thing they have been reckoned. ¹³ The sacrifices of Mine offerings! They sacrifice flesh, and they eat, Jehovah hath not accepted them, Now doth He remember their iniquity, And inspect their sin, They -- to Egypt they turn back.
