Hosea 4:1-3

Common English Bible

4 Hear the Lord’s word,
        people of Israel;
    for the Lord has a dispute
        with the inhabitants of the land.
    There’s no faithful love or loyalty,
        and no knowledge of God in the land.
² Swearing, lying, murder,
        together with stealing and adultery are common;
        bloody crime followed by bloody crime.
³ Therefore, the earth itself becomes sick,
        and all who live on it grow weak;
        together with the wild animals
            and the birds in the sky,
        even the fish of the sea are dying.
