Hoshea 10:3-5

Orthodox Jewish Bible

³ For now they shall say, We have no Melech, because we feared not Hashem; but if we did have a Melech, what could he do for us?

⁴ They have spoken words, swearing falsely in cutting brit (covenant); thus mishpat springeth up as poisonous herb in the furrows of the sadeh.

⁵ The inhabitants of Shomron tremble because of the eglot (calf-idols) of Beit-Aven; for the people thereof shall mourn over it, likewise the komer (idolatrous priests) over it, who shout for joy over its kavod, for it has gone into the Golus for them.
