Hosea 4:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 The more they (A)multiplied, the more they sinned against Me;
I will (B)change their glory into disgrace.
8 They (C)eat the [a]sin of My people
And (D)lift up [b]their soul toward their iniquity.
9 And it will be like people, (E)like priest;
So I will (F)punish them for their ways
And cause their deeds to return to them.
Hosea 4:7-9
New International Version
7 The more priests there were,
the more they sinned against me;
they exchanged their glorious God[a](A) for something disgraceful.(B)
8 They feed on the sins of my people
and relish their wickedness.(C)
9 And it will be: Like people, like priests.(D)
I will punish both of them for their ways
and repay them for their deeds.(E)
