Hosea 10:3-5
International Standard Version

3 From now on they will say,
    ‘We have no king,
        because we did not fear the Lord—
    and what would a king do for us?’
4 Their word is falsely given
    as they make their agreements;[a]
so judgment springs up
    like poisonous weeds in the furrows of a field.[b]

5 “The residents of Samaria will be terrified
    because of the cows[c] of Beth-aven.
Its people will mourn over Beth-aven,[d]
    along with the priests who will mourn its glory,
        because that glory has departed.[e]
