Hosea 13:3 Context
1When Ephraim spake, trembling, he exalted himselfe in Israel, but, when he offended in Baal, he died. 2And now they sinne more and more, and haue made them molten images of their siluer, and idoles according to their owne vnderstanding, all of it the worke of the craftesmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice, kisse the calues. 3Therefore they shalbe as the morning cloud, and as the early dew it passeth away, as the chaffe that is driuen with a whirlewinde out of the floore, and as the smoke out of the chimney. 4Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no God, but me: for there is no sauiour beside me. 5¶ I did know thee in the wildernesse, in the land of great drought.
