Hosea 8:4-6

Common English Bible

⁴ They set up kings, but not through me;
        they chose princes, but without my knowledge.
    With silver and gold they crafted idols
        for their own destruction.
⁵ Your calf is rejected, Samaria.
        My anger burns against them.
        How long will they remain guilty?
⁶ The calf is from Israel,
        a person made it;
        it is not God.
    The calf of Samaria will be smashed.
