Hosea 4:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ My people are destroyed
        from lack of knowledge.
    Since you have rejected knowledge,
        so I will reject you from serving me as a priest.
    Since you have forgotten the Instruction of your God,
        so also I will forget your children.
⁷ The more they increased,
        the more they sinned against me;
        they exchanged their glory for shame.
⁸ They feed on the sin of my people;
        they set their hearts on evil things.
