They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.
Hacen promesas que nunca planean cumplir, jurando juramentos falsos cuando hacen tratos. Por esto, la justicia crece salvaje y amarga como hierbas venenosas que se extienden por todos los rincones de la tierra.
Las promesas falsas y juramentos mentirosos hacen que la justicia se corrompa y se extienda como veneno por toda la tierra.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 8th century BC, the prophet Hosea was addressing the Northern Kingdom of Israel, which was frequently making insincere oaths and breaking covenants with foreign nations like Assyria and Egypt as part of their political alliances. This behavior symbolized Israel's deeper spiritual unfaithfulness to God, as they pursued idols and relied on human agreements rather than divine guidance. As a result, God warned through Hosea that such deceit would bring judgment, comparing it to poisonous hemlock that ruins crops in the fields.
