Hosea 4:5-7

New Century Version

⁵ You will be ruined in the day,
    and your prophets will be ruined with you in the night.
I will also destroy your mother.^[a]
6 My people will be destroyed,
    because they have no knowledge.
You have refused to learn,
    so I will refuse to let you be priests to me.
You have forgotten the teachings of your God,
    so I will forget your children.
⁷ The more priests there are,
    the more they sin against me.
I will take away their honor
    and give them shame.
