Hosea 4:4-6
English Standard Version
4 (A)Yet let no one contend,
and let none accuse,
for with you is (B)my contention, O priest.[a]
5 You shall stumble by day;
the prophet also shall stumble with you by night;
and I will destroy (C)your mother.
6 My people are destroyed (D)for lack of knowledge;
(E)because you have rejected knowledge,
I reject you (F)from being a priest to me.
And since you have forgotten the law of your God,
(G)I also will forget your children.
