Hosea 4:1-3

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

4 Hear the word of the Lord, O people of Israel,
    for the Lord has an indictment against the inhabitants of the land.
There is no faithfulness or loyalty
    and no knowledge of God in the land.^(A)
2 Swearing, lying, and murder,
    and stealing and adultery break out;
    bloodshed follows bloodshed.
³ Therefore the land mourns,
    and all who live in it languish;
together with the wild animals
    and the birds of the air,
    even the fish of the sea are perishing.^(B)
