They have set up kings, but not by me; they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
Hosea 8:4 · ASV
They have set up kings, but not by me; they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
Hosea 8:4 · ASV
They have set up kings, but not by me; they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
They have put up kings, but not by me; they have made princes, but I had no knowledge of it; they have made images of silver and gold, so that they may be cut off.
Αυτοι κατεστησαν βασιλεις, πλην ουχι παρ' εμου· εκαμον αρχοντας, πλην χωρις να εχω ειδησιν· εκ του αργυριου αυτων και εκ του χρυσιου αυτων εκαμον εις εαυτους ειδωλα, δια να εξολοθρευθωσιν.
They have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not: of their silver and their gold have they made them idols, that they may be cut off.
