Hosea 7:14-16
New Living Translation
14 They do not cry out to me with sincere hearts.
Instead, they sit on their couches and wail.
They cut themselves,[a] begging foreign gods for grain and new wine,
and they turn away from me.
15 I trained them and made them strong,
yet now they plot evil against me.
16 They look everywhere except to the Most High.
They are as useless as a crooked bow.
Their leaders will be killed by their enemies
because of their insolence toward me.
Then the people of Egypt
will laugh at them.
