Hosea 10,1

Israel er en frodig vintre;
Han gir frukt for seg selv.
Jo mer frukt han har,
Jo flere alter bygde han;
Jo mer velstående hans land var,
Jo mer forbedret han minnesteinene.

2 Deres hjerte er svikefullt;
Nå må de bære konsekvensene av sin skyld.
Herren vil rive ned deres alter
Og ødelegge deres minnesteiner.

3 Nå vil de sikkert si,
“Vi har ingen konge,
For vi ærer ikke Herren.
Når det gjelder kongen, hva kan han utrette for oss?”

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
