Hosea 13:2-4
2
And now they sin more and more,
and d make for themselves metal images,
idols skillfully made of their silver,
e all of them the work of craftsmen.
It is said of them,
"Those who offer human sacrifice f kiss calves!"
3
Therefore they shall be g like the morning mist
or g like the dew that goes early away,
h like the chaff that swirls from the threshing floor
or i like smoke from a window.
4
But j I am the Lord your God
from the land of Egypt;
k you know no God but me,
and l besides me there is no savior.
