Hosea 4:1-4

Hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

ye children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath a controversy
<07379>

with the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the land
<0776>_,

because [there is] no truth
<0571>_,

nor mercy
<02617>_,

nor knowledge
<01847>

of God
<0430>

in the land
<0776>_.

By swearing
<0422> (8800)_,

and lying
<03584> (8763)_,

and killing
<07523> (8800)_,

and stealing
<01589> (8800)_,

and committing adultery
<05003> (8800)_,

they break out
<06555> (8804)_,

and blood
<01818>

toucheth
<05060> (8804)

blood
<01818>_.

{blood: Heb. bloods}

Therefore shall the land
<0776>

mourn
<056> (8799)_,

and every one that dwelleth
<03427> (8802)

therein shall languish
<0535> (8797)_,

with the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>_,

and with the fowls
<05775>

of heaven
<08064>_;

yea, the fishes
<01709>

of the sea
<03220>

also shall be taken away
<0622> (8735)_.

Yet let no man
<0376>

strive
<07378> (8799)_,

nor reprove
<03198> (8686)

another
<0376>_:

for thy people
<05971>

[are] as they that strive
<07378> (8688)

with the priest
<03548>_.
