Hosea 8:6-8
Contemporary English Version

6 Someone from Israel built
that idol for you,
    but only I am God.
And so it will be smashed
    to pieces.[a]

7 If you scatter wind
    instead of wheat,
you will harvest a whirlwind
    and have no wheat.
Even if you harvest grain,
    enemies will steal it all.

8 Israel, you are ruined,
and now the nations
    consider you worthless.
