Hosea 8:1-3 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. The Lord said to me, "Put a trumpet to your lips! Give a warning to my people! Assyria is like an eagle. It is ready to attack my land. My people have broken the covenant I made with them. They have refused to obey my law.

2. Israel shouts to me, 'We recognize you as our God!'

3. But they have turned away from what is good. So an enemy will chase them.
