Hosea 8:11-14 Common English Bible (CEB)

11. When Ephraim added more altars to take away sin,they became altars to him for sinning.

12. Even though I write out for him a large number of my instructions,they are regarded as strange.

13. Though they offer choice sacrifices,though they eat flesh,the Lord doesn’t accept them.Now he will remember their wickednessand punish their sins;they will return to Egypt.

14. Israel has forgotten his maker,and built palaces;and Judah has multiplied walled cities;but I will send a fire upon his cities,and it will devour his fortresses.
