Hosea 8:14 in context

  1. 12I wrote for him the many things of my law;
    but they were regarded as a strange thing.
  2. 13As for the sacrifices of my offerings,
    they sacrifice meat and eat it;
    But Yahweh doesn’t accept them.
    Now he will remember their iniquity,
    and punish their sins.
    They will return to Egypt.
  3. 14For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces;
    and Judah has multiplied fortified cities;
    but I will send a fire on his cities,
    and it will devour its fortresses.”
