Hosea 12
1
and oil is carried into Egypt.
2
according to his deeds he will repay him.
3
and in his manhood he contended with God.
4
He found him at Bethel, and there he spoke with us,
5
Yahweh is his name of renown!
6
and wait continually for your God.
7
He loves to defraud.
8
In all my wealth they won’t find in me any iniquity that is sin.”
9
as in the days of the solemn feast.
10
and by the ministry of the prophets I have used parables.
11
Indeed, their altars are like heaps in the furrows of the field.
12
and for a wife he tended flocks and herds.
13
and by a prophet he was preserved.
14
and his Lord will repay his contempt.
