Modern English Version

5 You will stumble in the day,
    and the prophet also will stumble with you in the night,
and I will destroy your mother.
6     My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

Because you have rejected knowledge,
    I will reject you from being My priest.
And because you have forgotten the law of your God,
    I will also forget your children.
7 As they increased, so they sinned against Me.
    I will change[a] their glory[b] into shame.

So I will destroy your mother(B)—

“Because you have rejected knowledge,

because you have ignored the law(D) of your God,

7 The more priests there were,
    the more they sinned against me;
    they exchanged their glorious God[a](E) for something disgraceful.(F)
