Hosea 7:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵     On the day of our king,
            the officials became sick with the heat of wine;
            he stretched out his hand to those who mocked him.
⁶     They approach like a hot oven, their hearts burning.
            Throughout the night, their anger smolders;
                in the morning, it continues to burn like a flaming fire.
⁷     All of them are hot as an oven;
            they devour their rulers.
    All their kings have fallen;
            none of them call upon me.
