While they lie in wait;
1Their baker sleeps all night;
In the morning it burns like a flaming fire.
And have devoured their judges;
All their kings have fallen.
aNone among them calls upon Me.
But he does not know it;
Yes, gray hairs are here and there on him,
Yet he does not know it.
But bthey do not return to the Lord their God,
Nor seek Him for all this.

Hosea 7:8
A cake not turned - In the East having heated the hearth, they sweep one corner, put the cake upon it, and cover it with embers; in a short time they turn it, cover it again, and continue this several times, till they find it sufficiently baked. All travelers into Asiatic countries have noted this.
