Hosea 7:4-8 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

4. They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceases to stir the fire after he has kneaded the dough, until it is leavened.

5. In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scoffers.

6. For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait: their baker sleeps all the night; in the morning it burns as a flaming fire.

7. They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings have fallen: there is none among them that calls unto me.

8. Ephraim, he has mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
