Hosea 8:11 in Context — Hosea 8

9 Porque eles subiram à Assíria, [como] um jumento selvagem solitário; Efraim se vendeu aos amantes.

10 Ainda que tenham se vendido às nações, agora eu as ajuntarei; e começarão a ser reduzidos pela opressão do rei de príncipes.

11 Porque Efraim multiplicou os altares para pecar, os altares feitos para cometer pecado.

12 Eu lhe escrevi as grandezas de minha lei, mas foram consideradas coisa estranha.

13 Quanto aos sacrifícios de ofertas a mim, eles sacrificam a carne, e a comem; porém o SENHOR não os aceita. Agora ele se lembrará de sua perversidade, e punirá seus pecados; eles voltarão ao Egito.
