Hosea 4:6-8

New International Reader's Version

“You priests have refused to obey me.
    So I will refuse to accept you as my priests.
You have not paid any attention to my law.
    So I will not let your children be my priests.
⁷ The more priests there were,
    the more they sinned against me.
    They have traded their glorious God for that shameful god named Baal.
⁸ They live off the sins of my people.
    And they want them to keep on sinning.
