Hosea 10:12 in Context — Hosea 10

10 Quando eu quiser, eu os castigarei; e povos se reunirão contra eles, para que sejam presos por causa de sua dupla transgressão.

11 Efraim é uma bezerra domada, que amava trilhar; mas eu porei [um jugo] sobre seu belo pescoço; farei com que Efraim seja montado; Judá lavrará, Jacó fará sulcos na terra.

12 Semeai para vós justiça, colhei para vós bondade; lavrai para vós lavoura; porque é o tempo de buscar ao SENHOR, até que ele venha, e faça chover justiça sobre vós.

13 Lavrastes maldade, colhestes perversidade; comestes o fruto de mentira; porque confiaste em teu caminho, na multidão de teus guerreiros.

14 Portanto entre teu povo se levantará tumulto, e todas as tuas fortalezas serão destruídas, assim como Salmã destruiu a Bete-Arbel no dia da batalha; ali a mãe foram despedaçada com [seus] filhos.
