1 When Ephraim spoke, there was terror; he was exalted in Israel, but he became guilty by worshiping Baal and died. 2 Even now they persist in sin! They make metal images for themselves, idols that they skillfully fashion from their own silver; all of them are nothing but the work of craftsmen! There is a saying about them: |Those who sacrifice to the calf idol are calf kissers!| Hosea 13:1-2, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
