Nor your brides when they commit adultery;
For the men themselves go apart with harlots,
And offer sacrifices with a aritual harlot.
Therefore people who do not understand will be trampled.
Let not Judah offend.
aDo not come up to Gilgal,
Nor go up to bBeth Aven,
cNor swear an oath, saying, ‘As the Lord lives’—
Like a stubborn calf;
Now the Lord will let them forage
Like a lamb in1 open country.
And bthey shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.

Hosea 4:16
Israel - The ten tribes. As a back - sliding heifer - Which when grown lusty, and wanton, will neither endure the yoke nor be confined in her allowed pastures. In a large place - In a large place or wilderness, where is no rest, safety or provision; such shall be the condition of the ten tribes.
