And beveryone who dwells there will waste away
With the beasts of the field
And the birds of the air;
Even the fish of the sea will be taken away.
For your people are like those awho contend with the priest.
The prophet also shall stumble with you in the night;
And I will destroy your mother.
Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also will reject you from being priest for Me;
bBecause you have forgotten the law of your God,
I also will forget your children.
| << Hosea 4:4 | Hosea 4:6 >> |
