← Hosea 9:17	Hosea 10:1 (KJV)	Hosea 10:2 →
My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.	Israel [is] an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath increased the altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images.	Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images.
