Hosea 4:7-9
New Living Translation
7 The more priests there are,
the more they sin against me.
They have exchanged the glory of God
for the shame of idols.[a]
8 “When the people bring their sin offerings, the priests get fed.
So the priests are glad when the people sin!
9 ‘And what the priests do, the people also do.’
So now I will punish both priests and people
for their wicked deeds.
