Hos. 13:2 in context
The whole interlinear chapter
Hos. 13:1      Hos. 13:3

Hosea 13:2

Now they sin more and more (they continue in sin; add to, increase their sin)
and have made cast images of their silver according to their own understanding,
idols, all made by craftsmen.
About them they say:
"He who sacrifices—man—kisses calves [the cast idols of calves, see 1 Kings 19:18; Job 31:27]."
[The last part of the verse is difficult to translate. It may refer to human sacrifice, but it is more likely that the word is related to the last words, giving it the meaning "people kiss idols of calves." The entire passage refers to the Exodus from Egypt, see also Ex. 32:8.]
