Hosea 10:10 (NET) New English Translation

1 Israel was a fertile vine that yielded fruit. As his fruit multiplied, he multiplied altars to Baal. As his land prospered, they adorned the fertility pillars.
2 Their heart is slipping; soon they will be punished for their guilt. The LORD will break their altars; he will completely destroy their fertility pillars.
3 Very soon they will say, "We have no king since we did not fear the LORD. But what can a king do for us anyway?"
4 They utter empty words, taking false oaths and making empty agreements. Therefore legal disputes sprout up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of a plowed field.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will lament over the calf idol of Beth Aven. Its people will mourn over it; its idolatrous priests will wail over it, because its splendor will be taken from them into exile.
6 Even the calf idol will be carried to Assyria, as tribute for the great king. Ephraim will be disgraced; Israel will be put to shame because of its wooden idol.
7 Samaria and its king will be carried off like a twig on the surface of the waters.
8 The high places of the "House of Wickedness" will be destroyed; it is the place where Israel sins. Thorns and thistles will grow up over its altars. Then they will say to the mountains, "Cover us!" and to the hills, "Fall on us!"
9 O Israel, you have sinned since the time of Gibeah, and there you have remained. Did not war overtake the evildoers in Gibeah?
10 When I please, I will discipline them; I will gather nations together to attack them, to bind them in chains for their two sins.
11 Ephraim was a well-trained heifer who loved to thresh grain; I myself put a fine yoke on her neck. I will harness Ephraim. Let Judah plow! Let Jacob break up the unplowed ground for himself!
12 Sow righteousness for yourselves, reap unfailing love. Break up the unplowed ground for yourselves, for it is time to seek the LORD, until he comes and showers deliverance on you.
13 But you have plowed wickedness; you have reaped injustice; you have eaten the fruit of deception. Because you have depended on your chariots; you have relied on your many warriors.
14 The roar of battle will rise against your people; all your fortresses will be devastated, just as Shalman devastated Beth Arbel on the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to the ground with their children.
15 So will it happen to you, O Bethel, because of your great wickedness! When that day dawns, the king of Israel will be destroyed.
1 Israel H3478 is an empty H1238 vine H1612 , he bringeth forth H7737 fruit H6529 NMS unto himself : according to the multitude H7230 of his fruit H6529 he hath increased H7235 the altars H4196 ; according to the goodness H2896 of his land H776 L-CFS-3MS they have made goodly H3190 images H4676 .

5 The inhabitants H7934 of Samaria H8111 shall fear H1481 VQY3MP because of the calves H5697 of Beth H1007 - aven : for H3588 CONJ the people H5971 thereof shall mourn H56 over H5921 PREP-3MS it , and the priests H3649 thereof that rejoiced H1523 on H5921 PREP-3MS it , for H5921 PREP-3MS the glory H3519 thereof , because H3588 CONJ it is departed H1540 from H4480 M-PREP-3MS it .
6 It shall be also H1571 CONJ carried H2986 VOY3MS unto Assyria H804 for a present H4503 NFS to king H4428 L-CMS Jareb H3377 : Ephraim H669 shall receive H3947 shame H1317 , and Israel H3478 shall be ashamed H954 of his own counsel H6098 .

9 O Israel H3478 , thou hast sinned H2398 VQQ2MS from the days H3117 of Gibeah H1390 : there H8033 ADV they stood H5975 : the battle H4421 NFS in Gibeah H1390 against H5921 PREP the children H1121 of iniquity H5932 did not H3808 ADV overtake H5381 them .

11 And Ephraim H669 is as a heifer H5697 that is taught H3925 , and loveth H157 to tread out H1758 the corn ; but I H589 W-PPRO-1MS passed over H5674 upon H5921 PREP her fair H2898 neck H6677 : I will make Ephraim H669 to ride H7392 ; Judah H3063 shall plow H2790 , and Jacob H3290 shall break his clods H7702 .
