Hosea 4:12

12 They consult their wooden idols,
and their diviner’s staff answers with an oracle.
The wind of prostitution blows them astray;
they commit spiritual adultery ^{▼▼ Heb “adultery.” The adjective “spiritual” is supplied in the translation to clarify that apostasy is meant here.} against their God.
