Isaiah 46:1-2
The Idols of Babylon and the One True God
1 aBel bows down; Nebo stoops;their idols are on beasts and livestock;
these things you carry are borne
as burdens on weary beasts.
2They stoop; they bow down together;
they cannot save the burden,
but bthemselves go into captivity.

cyou sent your envoys far off,
and sent down even to Sheol.
Hosea 8:9-10
9For dthey have gone up to Assyria,ea wild donkey wandering alone;
Ephraim has hired lovers.
10Though they hire allies among the nations,
I will soon gather them up.
And fthe king and princes gshall soon writhe
because of the tribute.
Hosea 12:1
1Ephraim feeds on the windand pursues hthe east wind all day long;
they multiply ifalsehood and violence;
jthey make a covenant with Assyria,
and koil is carried to Egypt.
