Hosea 12:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 He is [a]Canaan: the balances of decree are in his hand: he loveth to oppress.
8 And Ephraim said, Notwithstanding I am rich, I have found me out riches in all my labors: they shall find none iniquity in me, [b]that were wickedness.
9 Though I am the Lord thy God, from the land of Egypt, yet will I make thee to dwell in the tabernacles, as in [c]the days of the solemn feast.
