Hosea 4:13-15
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
13 They offered sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burnt incense upon the hills: under the oak, and the poplar, and the turpentine tree, because the shadow thereof was good: therefore shall your daughters commit fornication, and your spouses shall be adulteresses.
14 I will not visit upon your daughters when they shall commit fornication, and upon your spouses when they shall commit adultery: because themselves conversed with harlots, and offered sacrifice with the effeminate, and the people that doth not understand shall be beaten.
15 If thou play the harlot, O Israel, at least let not Juda offend: and go ye not into Galgal, and come not up into Bethaven, and do not swear: The Lord liveth.

Hosea 4:13-15
New International Version
13 They sacrifice on the mountaintops
and burn offerings on the hills,
under oak,(A) poplar and terebinth,
where the shade is pleasant.(B)
Therefore your daughters turn to prostitution(C)
and your daughters-in-law to adultery.(D)
14 “I will not punish your daughters
when they turn to prostitution,
nor your daughters-in-law
when they commit adultery,
because the men themselves consort with harlots(E)
and sacrifice with shrine prostitutes(F)—
a people without understanding(G) will come to ruin!(H)
15 “Though you, Israel, commit adultery,
do not let Judah become guilty.
