Hosea 13:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² But they keep on sinning more and more.
    They make idols of their silver.
Those idols are cleverly made.
    They are the work of a craftsman.
Yet the people of Israel say to each other,
    “Kiss those calf idols and sacrifice to them.”
³ So those people will be like the morning dew.
    They will disappear like the morning mist.
They will be like chaff blown from the threshing floor.
    They will vanish away like smoke rising from a chimney.
