Hosea 4:15-17

World English Bible

¹⁵ “Though you, Israel, play the prostitute,
    yet don’t let Judah offend;
    and don’t come to Gilgal,
    neither go up to Beth Aven,
    nor swear, ‘As Yahweh lives.’
¹⁶ For Israel has behaved extremely stubbornly, like a stubborn heifer.
    Then how will Yahweh feed them like a lamb in a meadow.
¹⁷ Ephraim is joined to idols.
    Leave him alone!
