The Key Word — כָּ֗כָה, Ka.khahgenerated
The word כָּ֗כָה (kakah) is an adverb meaning 'thus' or 'in this way.' It is used to indicate the manner or context in which something occurs, linking the action to the preceding or following events. In this verse, it highlights the certainty of the judgment that will befall Bethel as a direct consequence of their actions.
This word appears frequently in the Hebrew Bible, often serving to clarify or emphasize the manner in which an event unfolds, as seen in other passages like 2 Samuel 18:30. Its use here underscores the inevitability of the consequences that Hosea proclaims.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is introduced by the finite verb עָשָׂ֤ה, someone will do, which governs the entire statement about Bethel's fate. The structure is straightforward, with a clear cause-and-effect relationship articulated: the actions of Bethel lead to the prophesied judgment.
The sentence is built around the consequences of wickedness, with additional details provided through prepositional and noun phrases that clarify the subjects involved, such as the king of Israel and the timing of the judgment.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates כָּ֗כָה as ποιήσω (poiēsō), meaning 'I will do.' This choice emphasizes the active role of God in enacting judgment, highlighting a direct divine intervention in the fate of Bethel.
The translation of רָעַ֣ת as προσώπου (prosōpou) suggests a focus on the face or presence of evil, indicating that the moral failings are not just actions but also a state of being that provokes divine response.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Hosea 10:15 warns the people of Bethel that their great wickedness will lead to severe consequences, including the destruction of their king. This verse follows a series of calls to repentance, emphasizing the need for the people to recognize their moral failures before judgment comes.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Hosea is referring to the severe moral failings and injustices committed by the people of Bethel, which have provoked God's judgment.
Bethel, meaning 'house of God,' was a central place of worship, making its moral failures particularly grievous in the eyes of God.
This phrase signifies a new beginning or the arrival of judgment, indicating that the consequences of their actions will soon be realized.
This indicates a total destruction of leadership and authority in Israel, reflecting the severity of God's judgment on the nation.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text of Hosea 10:15 states that Bethel will face consequences due to its wickedness, specifically mentioning the king of Israel being cut off at dawn. The Septuagint does not provide a complete translation for this verse, but it matches nine out of thirteen words with the Masoretic Text, indicating some agreement in the core message. The Dead Sea Scrolls (4Q82) also contain fragments that align with the Masoretic Text, but the text is incomplete and has been supplemented by an editor, so it is not possible to fully confirm agreement or differences in the entire verse from that source.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

Israel
The name conferred on Jacob after the great prayer-struggle at Peniel (Gen. 32:28), because “as a prince he had power with God and prevailed.” (See JACOB.) This is the common name given to Jacob’s descendants. The whole people of the twelve tribes are called “Israelites,” the “children of Israel” (Josh. 3:17; 7:25; Judg. 8:27; Jer. 3:21), and the “house of Israel” (Ex. 16:31; 40:38).
This name Israel is sometimes used emphatically for the true Israel (Ps. 73:1: Isa. 45:17; 49:3;

It became the national name of the twelve tribes collectively. They are so called in (Exodus 3:16) and afterward. It is used in a narrower sense, excluding Judah, in (1 Samuel 11:8; 2 Samuel 20:1; 1 Kings 12:16) Thenceforth it was assumed and accepted as the name of the northern kingdom. After the Babylonian captivity, the returned exiles resumed the name Israel as the designation of…

By the name Israel is sometimes understood all the posterity of Israel, the seed of Jacob, 1Co 10:18; sometimes all true believers, his spiritual seed, Ro 9:6; and sometimes the kingdom of Israel, or the ten tribes, as distinct from the kingdom of Judah.
