Hosea 4:10 Context
8They eate vp the sinne of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquitie. 9And there shall be like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their wayes, and reward them their doings. 10For they shall eate, and not haue enough: they shall commit whordome, and shall not increase, because they haue left off to take heed to the Lord. 11Whoredome, and wine, and newe wine take away the heart. 12¶ My people aske counsel at their stocks, and their staffe declareth vnto them: for the spirit of whordomes hath caused them to erre, and they haue gone a whoring from vnder their God.
