Hosea4:19

19 The wind hath bound her up in her wings , and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices .

The whirlwind of wrath from God hath already siezed th[illegible: 2 letters] old Adultress, and carried some of her children away already. 2 Kings 15.19. and 29 ver. Execution of Judgment is already begun, and therefore O Iudah keep distance from Ephrai[illegible: 1 letter].

Greatly confounded and disappointed of their hopes, as thou O Iudah wouldest prevent this shame, fly the society of these Idolaters.

What they made their confidence shall be their shame, their own Idols cannot help them, but their idolatry shall surely undo them. Their Idols which they worshipt and depended on shall be their shame and confusion, for thy God O Iudah, hath cursed such people. Confounded be all they that serve graven Images, that boast themselves of Idols, Psal. 97.7. if Israel do, yet O Iudah do not thou so.
