Hosea 12

Verses of Hosea 12 of the NKJV from the book of the bible

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - "Ephraim feeds on the wind, And pursues the east wind; He daily increases lies and desolation. Also they make a covenant with the Assyrians, And oil is carried to Egypt.
2 - "The LORD also brings a charge against Judah, And will punish Jacob according to his ways; According to his deeds He will recompense him.
3 - He took his brother by the heel in the womb, And in his strength he struggled with God.
4 - Yes, he struggled with the Angel and prevailed; He wept, and sought favor from Him. He found Him in Bethel, And there He spoke to us--
5 - That is, the LORD God of hosts. The LORD is His memorable name.
6 - So you, by the help of your God, return; Observe mercy and justice, And wait on your God continually.
7 - "A cunning Canaanite! Deceitful scales are in his hand; He loves to oppress.
8 - And Ephraim said, "Surely I have become rich, I have found wealth for myself; In all my labors They shall find in me no iniquity that is sin.'
9 - "But I am the LORD your God, Ever since the land of Egypt; I will again make you dwell in tents, As in the days of the appointed feast.
10 - I have also spoken by the prophets, And have multiplied visions; I have given symbols through the witness of the prophets."
11 - Though Gilead has idols--Surely they are vanity--Though they sacrifice bulls in Gilgal, Indeed their altars shall be heaps in the furrows of the field.
12 - Jacob fled to the country of Syria; Israel served for a spouse, And for a wife he tended sheep.
13 - By a prophet the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt, And by a prophet he was preserved.
14 - Ephraim provoked Him to anger most bitterly; Therefore his Lord will leave the guilt of his bloodshed upon him, And return his reproach upon him.
