Hosea 4:6-11

4:6

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}

4:7

As they were increased
<07230>_,

so they sinned
<02398> (8804)

against me: [therefore] will I change
<04171> (8686)

their glory
<03519>

into shame
<07036>_.

4:8

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}

4:9

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}

4:10

For they shall eat
<0398> (8804)_,

and not have enough
<07646> (8799)_:

they shall commit whoredom
<02181> (8689)_,

and shall not increase
<06555> (8799)_:

because they have left off
<05800> (8804)

to take heed
<08104> (8800)

to the LORD
<03068>_.

4:11

Whoredom
<02184>

and wine
<03196>

and new wine
<08492>

take away
<03947> (8799)

the heart
<03820>_.
