Hosea 4:6-8

The Voice

⁶    You’ve forgotten the law of your God: you’ve rejected My judgments.
    I’ll reject you because of your lack of knowledge—reject you as My priests;
        I’ll even forget your children!

⁷    The more powerful the priests grew, the more they sinned against Me.
        So I’ll turn their honor^[a] into shame.
⁸    Because these priests are allowed to eat the sin offerings,
        they actually want the people to sin so they’ll have more meat to eat!
