Hosea 7:5-7
Hosea 7:3-7 The Message (MSG)
“They entertain the king with their evil circus, delight the princes with their acrobatic lies. They’re a bunch of overheated adulterers, like an oven that holds its heat From the kneading of the dough to the rising of the bread. On the royal holiday the princes get drunk on wine and the frenzy of the mocking mob. They’re like wood stoves, red-hot with lust. Through the night their passion is banked; in the morning it blazes up, flames hungrily licking. Murderous and volcanic, they incinerate their rulers. Their kings fall one by one, and no one pays any attention to me.
Hosea 7:5-7 King James Version (KJV)
In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners. For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire. They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
Hosea 7:5-7 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)
On the day of our king, the princes became sick with the heat of wine; He stretched out his hand with scoffers, For their hearts are like an oven As they approach their plotting; Their anger smolders all night, In the morning it burns like a flaming fire. All of them are hot like an oven, And they consume their rulers; All their kings have fallen. None of them calls on Me.
Hosea 7:5-7 New Century Version (NCV)
The kings get so drunk they get sick every day. The rulers become crazy with wine; they make agreements with those who do not know the true God. They burn like an oven; their hearts burn inside them. All night long their anger is low, but when morning comes, it becomes a roaring fire. All these people are as hot as an oven; they burn up their rulers. All their kings fall, and no one calls on me.
Hosea 7:5-7 American Standard Version (ASV)

For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire. They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
