⁶     my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.^(A)

“Because you have rejected knowledge,
    I also reject you as my priests;
because you have ignored the law^(B) of your God,
    I also will ignore your children.
⁷ The more priests there were,
    the more they sinned against me;
    they exchanged their glorious God^[a](C) for something disgraceful.^(D)
8 They feed on the sins of my people
    and relish their wickedness.^(E)
