Hosea 8:6

For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not God: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.

Quia ex Israël et ipse est : artifex fecit illum, et non est deus ; quoniam in aranearum telas erit vitulus Samariæ.

ἐν τῷ Ἰσραήλ; καὶ αὐτὸ τέκτων ἐποίησεν καὶ οὐ θεός ἐστιν· διότι πλανῶν ἦν ὁ μόσχος σου, Σαμάρεια.

For from Israel is even this; the workman made it, and it is no God; yea, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
