Hosea 4:1-9

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>_.
Therefore shalt thou fall
<03782> (8804)
in the day
<03117>_,
and the prophet
<05030>
also shall fall
<03782> (8804)
with thee in the night
<03915>_,
and I will destroy
<01820> (8804)
thy mother
<0517>_.
{destroy: Heb. cut off}
My people
<05971>
are destroyed
<01820> (8738)
for lack of knowledge
<01847>_:
because thou hast rejected
<03988> (8804)
knowledge
<01847>_,
I will also reject
<03988> (8799)
thee, that thou shalt be no priest
<03547> (8763)
to me: seeing thou hast forgotten
<07911> (8799)
the law
<08451>
of thy God
<0430>_,
I will also forget
<07911> (8799)
thy children
<01121>_.
{destroyed: Heb. cut off}
As they were increased
<07230>_,
so they sinned
<02398> (8804)
against me: [therefore] will I change
<04171> (8686)
their glory
<03519>
into shame
<07036>_.
They eat up
<0398> (8799)
the sin
<02403>
of my people
<05971>_,
and they set
<05375> (8799)
their heart
<05315>
on their iniquity
<05771>_.
{set...: Heb. lift up their soul to}
And there shall be, like people
<05971>_,
like priest
<03548>_:
and I will punish
<06485> (8804)
them for their ways
<01870>_,
and reward
<07725> (8686)
them their doings
<04611>_.
{punish: Heb. visit upon} {reward: Heb. cause to return}
