Hosea 4:14-16
New American Standard Bible 1995
14 I will not punish your daughters when they play the harlot
Or your [a]brides when they commit adultery,
For the men themselves go apart with harlots
And offer sacrifices with (A)temple prostitutes;
So the people without understanding are [b]ruined.
15 Though you, Israel, play the harlot,
Do not let Judah become guilty;
Also do not go to (B)Gilgal,
Or go up to Beth-aven
(C)And take the oath:
“As the Lord lives!”
16 Since Israel is (D)stubborn
Like a stubborn heifer,
[c]Can the Lord now (E)pasture them
Like a lamb in a large field?
