Hosea 12:8


Hosea 12:7 Hosea 12:8 (KJV) Hosea 12:9
[He is] a merchant, the balances of deceit [are] in his hand: he loveth to oppress.
And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out substance: [in] all my labours they shall find none iniquity in me that [were] sin.
And I [that am] the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the solemn feast.
