Hosea 7:3
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
They delight the king with their evil, and the princes with their lies.
In context
1 When I heal Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim will be exposed, as well as the crimes of Samaria. For they practice deceit and thieves break in; bandits raid in the streets.
2 But they fail to consider in their hearts that I remember all their evil. Now their deeds are all around them; they are before My face.
3 They delight the king with their evil, and the princes with their lies.
4 They are all adulterers, like an oven heated by a baker who needs not stoke the fire from the kneading to the rising of the dough.
5 The princes are inflamed with wine on the day of our king; so he joins hands with those who mock him.
