Contemporary English Version
Hosea 7:12-14
Contemporary English Version
12 But I will catch them in a net
as hunters trap birds;
I threatened to punish them,
and indeed I will.[a]
13 Trouble and destruction
will be their reward
for rejecting me.
I would have rescued them,
but they told me lies.
14 They don't really pray to me;
they just howl in their beds.
They have rejected me for Baal
and slashed themselves,[b]
in the hope that Baal
will bless their crops.
