8 Set the trumpet to your lips!
    One like a vulture^[a] is over the house of the Lord,
because they have broken my covenant
    and transgressed my law.^(A)

⁶ My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge!
    Because you have rejected knowledge,
    I reject you from being a priest to me;
and since you have forgotten the law of your God,
    I also will forget your children.^(A)
