Hosea 12:10-14
New International Version
11 Is Gilead wicked?(C)
Its people are worthless!
Do they sacrifice bulls in Gilgal?(D)
Their altars will be like piles of stones
on a plowed field.(E)
12 Jacob fled to the country of Aram[a];(F)
Israel served to get a wife,
and to pay for her he tended sheep.(G)
13 The Lord used a prophet to bring Israel up from Egypt,(H)
by a prophet he cared for him.(I)
14 But Ephraim has aroused his bitter anger;
his Lord will leave on him the guilt of his bloodshed(J)
and will repay him for his contempt.(K)
