Hosea 7:3 Context
1When I would haue healed Israel, then the iniquitie of Ephraim was discouered, and the wickednesse of Samaria: for they commit falsehood: and the thiefe commeth in, and the troupe of robbers spoileth without. 2And they consider not in their hearts that I remember al their wickednesse: now their owne doings haue beset them about, they are before my face. 3They make the king glad with their wickednesse, and the princes with their lies. 4They are al adulterers, as an ouen heated by the baker: who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, vntill it be leauened. 5In the day of our King, the princes haue made him sicke with bottels of wine, he stretched out his hand with scorners.
