Hosea 4:5

Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.

Therefore shalt thou fall in the day - in broad daylight, a time when an attack would not be expected (notes, Jeremiah 6:4, "Prepare ye war ... let us go up at noon;" , "a spoiler at noonday").

And the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night - no time, night or day, shall be free from the Slaughter of individuals of the people, as well as of the false prophets.

And I will destroy thy mother - the Israelite state, of which the citizens are the children ().
