They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.

Verse 13 is found in chapter 8 of Hosea. Israel multiplies altars for sinning and turns God’s law into something foreign. Abundant religious activity does not mean obedience. Judah is also accused of multiplying fortified cities and forgetting her Maker. The section contrasts two forms of false security: trusting corrupt religious systems and trusting military structures.

En los sacrificios de mis dones sacrificaron carne, y comieron: no los quiso Jehová: ahora se acordará de su iniquidad, y visitará su pecado; ellos se tornarán a Egipto.
En cuanto a mis ofrendas de sacrificio, sacrifican carne y se la comen, pero Jehová no se complace en ellos. Ahora recordará su iniquidad y castigará sus pecados; ellos volverán a Egipto.
Ils immolent des victimes qu'ils m'offrent, Et ils en mangent la chair: L'Eternel n'y prend point de plaisir. Maintenant l'Eternel se souvient de leur iniquité, Et il punira leurs péchés: Ils retourneront en Egypte.
Quant’è a’ sacrificii delle mie offerte, sacrificano della carne, e la mangiano; il Signore non li gradisce; ora si ricorderà egli della loro iniquità, e farà punizione de’ lor peccati; essi ritorneranno in Egitto.
Quanto aos sacrifícios das minhas ofertas, sacrificam carne, e a comem, mas o SENHOR não as aceita; agora se lembrará da sua iniqüidade, e punirá os seus pecados; eles voltarão para o Egito.
他們獻祭物作為給我的供物, 卻自食其肉, 耶和華並不悅納他們。 現在他必記起他們的罪孽, 懲罰他們的罪惡; 他們必返回 埃及 。
