7 How can I be merciful to thee? thy children have forsaken me, and swear by them that are not gods: I fed them to the full, and they committed adultery, and rioted in the harlot's house. 8 They are become as amorous horses and stallions, every one neighed after his neighbor's wife. 9 Shall I not visit for these things, sayeth the Lord? and shall not my soul take revenge on such a nation?
