Hosea 7:4
King James Version
“They all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.”
Context
1When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, the troop of robbers spoileth without.
2And they consider not in their hearts I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
3They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
4They all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it be leavened.
5In the day of our king the princes have made sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
6For 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.
7They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: none among them that calleth unto me.
