Hosea 4:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because [a]thou hast refused knowledge, I will also refuse thee that thou shalt be no Priest to me: and seeing [b]thou hast forgotten the Law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7 As they were [c]increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
8 [d]They eat up the sins of my people, and lift up their minds in their iniquity.
