Hosea 13:1-2

New American Standard Bible 1995

13 ^(A)When Ephraim ^[a]spoke, there was trembling.
He ^(B)exalted himself in Israel,
But through ^(C)Baal he ^[b]did wrong and died.
² And now they sin more and more,
And make for themselves ^(D)molten images,
Idols ^[c](E)skillfully made from their silver,
All of them the ^(F)work of craftsmen.
They say of them, “Let the ^[d]men who sacrifice kiss the ^(G)calves!”
