Hosea 8:12-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 Though I write for him the multitude of my instructions,
they are regarded as a strange thing.(A)
13 Though they offer choice sacrifices,[a]
though they eat flesh,
the Lord does not accept them.
Now he will remember their iniquity
and punish their sins;
they shall return to Egypt.(B)
14 Israel has forgotten his Maker
and built palaces,
and Judah has multiplied fortified cities,
but I will send a fire upon his cities,
and it shall devour his strongholds.(C)
