Hosea 8:4

Israel Rejects The Good

³
Israel has rejected the good;
The enemy shall pursue him.
⁴ 
They set up kings, but not from Me [therefore without My blessing];
They have appointed princes, but I did not know it.
With their silver and their gold they made idols for themselves,
That they might be cut off.
⁵
He has rejected your [pagan] calf, O Samaria, saying,
“My wrath burns against them.”
How long will they be incapable of innocence?

Silver and Gold

No

Which they used for Baal and made into his image.

Hosea 13:2

And now they sin more and more,
And make for themselves molten images,
Idols skillfully made from their silver [as it pleased them],
All of them the work of the craftsmen.

To your tents, O Israel!
Look now after your own house, David!” Then Israel went back to their tents.
