Therefore his blood will be left on him,
and his Lord† will repay his contempt.

Hosea 12:14 in context
Hosea 12:11–14

If Gilead is wicked,
surely they are worthless.
In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls.
Indeed, their altars are like heaps in the furrows of the field.
12
Jacob fled into the country of Aram.
Israel served to get a wife.
For a wife he tended flocks and herds.
13
By a prophet the LORD brought Israel up out of Egypt,
and by a prophet he was preserved.
