Hosea 8:9-11

Tree of Life Version

⁹ For they have gone up to Assyria,
    like a wild donkey alone by itself.
Ephraim has hired lovers.
¹⁰ Although they hire among the nations,
I will now round them up.
So they will begin to decrease
under the burden of king and princes.
¹¹ “When Ephraim multiplied altars
    for making sin offerings,
they became his altars for sinning.
