Hosea 4:4-6
New International Reader's Version
4 “But you priests should not blame the people.
You should not find fault with one another.
After all, your people
could also bring charges against you.
5 You trip and fall day and night.
And the prophets fall down along with you.
So I will destroy your nation.
She is the one who gave birth to you.
6 My people are destroyed
because they do not know me.
“You priests have refused to obey me.
So I will refuse to accept you as my priests.
You have not paid any attention to my law.
So I will not let your children be my priests.
Hosea 4:4-6
New International Version
4 “But let no one bring a charge,
let no one accuse another,
for your people are like those
who bring charges against a priest.(A)
5 You stumble(B) day and night,
and the prophets stumble with you.
So I will destroy your mother(C)—
6 my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.(D)
“Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also reject you as my priests;
because you have ignored the law(E) of your God,
I also will ignore your children.
