Hosea 4:6-12 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

6. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you,that you may be no priest to me.Because you have forgotten your God’s Torah,I will also forget your children.

7. As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me.I will change their glory into shame.

8. They feed on the sin of my people,and set their heart on their iniquity.

9. It will be, like people, like priest;and I will punish them for their ways,and will repay them for their deeds.

10. They will eat, and not have enough.They will play the prostitute, and will not increase;because they have abandoned giving to the Lord.

11. Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.

12. My people consult with their wooden idol,and answer to a stick of wood.Indeed the spirit of prostitution has led them astray,and they have been unfaithful to their God.
