The word about Israel, a luxuriant vine, and the calves of Beth Aven
열매 맺는 무성한 포도나무 이스라엘과 벧아웬의 송아지를 두고 하는 말씀
Hosea 10:1–8: the text says, “Israel is a luxuriant vine that produces his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones. Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones. Surely now they will say, ‘We have no king; for we don’t fear the LORD; and the king, what can he do for us?’ They make promises, swearing falsely in making covenants. Therefore judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field. The inhabitants of Samaria will be in terror for the calves of Beth Aven, for its people will mourn over it, along with its priests who rejoiced over it, for its glory, because it has departed from it. It also will be carried to Assyria for a present to a great king. Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel. Samaria and her king float away like a twig on the water. The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed. The thorn and the thistle will come up on their altars. They will tell the mountains, ‘Cover us!’ and the hills, ‘Fall on us!’” These verses carry no formula saying that the LORD speaks. The Korean Revised Version names God at 10:2 (하나님이 그 제단을 쳐서 깨치시며), where WEB reads “He”; reads at 10:5 벧아웬의 송아지, the calf of Beth Aven, where WEB reads “the calves of Beth Aven”; names the king at 10:6 (예물로 야렙 왕에게 드리리니, for a present to King Jareb), where WEB reads “for a present to a great king”; and reads at 10:7 사마리아 왕은 물 위에 거품 같이 멸망할 것이며, the king of Samaria will perish like foam on the water, where WEB reads “Samaria and her king float away like a twig on the water”.
