Relentless Judgment on Israel

1 When Ephraim spoke, trembling,
He exalted himself in Israel;
But when he offended through Baal worship, he died.
2 Now they sin more and more,
And have made for themselves molded images,
Idols of their silver, according to their skill;
All of it is the work of craftsmen.
They say of them,
“Let1 the men who sacrifice kiss the calves!” 
3 Therefore they shall be like the morning cloud
And like the early dew that passes away,
aLike chaff blown off from a threshing floor
And like smoke from a chimney. 
4 “Yet aI am the Lord your God
Ever since the land of Egypt,
And you shall know no God but Me;
For bthere is no savior besides Me. 
5 aI1 knew you in the wilderness,
bIn the land of1 great drought.

Hosea 13:3

Therefore they shall be as the morning Cloud - as the early Dew - as the Chaff - as the Smoke - Four things, most easy to be driven about and dissipated, are employed here to show how they should be scattered among the nations, and dissipated by captivity.
