| 7:1 | When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers spoileth without. |
| 7:2 | And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face. |
| 7:3 | They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies. |
| 7:4 | They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened. |
| 7:5 | In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners. |
| 7:6 | For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire. |
| 7:7 | They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me. |
| 7:7 | 眾民也熱如火爐、燒滅他們的官長．他們的君王都仆倒而死．他們中間無一人求告我。 |
| 7:7 | 众民也热如火炉，烧灭他们的官长。他们的君王都仆倒而死。他们中间无一人求告我。 |
| hos:8:4 | They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off. |
| 2ki:15:10 | And Shallum the son of Jabesh conspired against him, and smote him before the people, and slew him, and reigned in his stead. |
| 2ki:15:14 | For Menahem the son of Gadi went up from Tirzah, and came to Samaria, and smote Shallum the son of Jabesh in Samaria, and slew him, and reigned in his stead. |
| 2ki:15:25 | But Pekah the son of Remaliah, a captain of his, conspired against him, and smote him in Samaria, in the palace of the king's house, with Argob and Arieh, and with him fifty men of the Gileadites: and he killed him, and reigned in his room. |
| 2ki:15:30 | And Hoshea the son of Elah made a conspiracy against Pekah the son of Remaliah, and smote him, and slew him, and reigned in his stead, in the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah. |
| isa:64:7 | And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities. |

| 7:8 | Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned. |
| 7:9 | Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not. |
| 7:10 | And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this. |
| 7:11 | Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria. |
| 7:12 | When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard. |
| 7:13 | Woe unto them! for they have fled from me: destruction unto them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me. |
| 7:14 | And they have not cried unto me with their heart, when they howled upon their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me. |
| 7:15 | Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me. |
| 7:16 | They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt. |
