4Hear the word of the Lord , you Israelites, because the Lord has a charge to bring against you who live in the land: "There is no faithfulness, no love, no acknowledgment of God in the land.
2There is only cursing, lying and murder, stealing and adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
3Because of this the land mourns, and all who live in it waste away; the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the fish of the sea are dying.
4"But let no man bring a charge, let no man accuse another, for your people are like those who bring charges against a priest.
5You stumble day and night, and the prophets stumble with you. So I will destroy your mother-
6my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. "Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.
7The more the priests increased, the more they sinned against me; they exchanged their Glory for something disgraceful.
8They feed on the sins of my people and relish 1 their wickedness.
9And it will be: Like people, like priests. I will punish both of them for their ways and repay them for their deeds.
10"They will eat but not have enough; they will engage in prostitution but not increase, because they have deserted 2 the Lord to give themselves
11to prostitution, to old wine and new, which take away the understanding
12of my people. They consult a wooden idol 3 and are answered by a stick of wood. A spirit of prostitution leads them astray; they are unfaithful to their God.
13They sacrifice on the mountaintops and burn offerings on the hills, under oak, poplar and terebinth, where the shade is pleasant. Therefore your daughters turn to prostitution and your daughters-in-law to adultery.
14"I will not punish your daughters when they turn to prostitution, nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery, because the men themselves consort 4 with harlots and sacrifice with shrine 5 prostitutes- a people without understanding will come to ruin!
15"Though you commit adultery, O Israel, let not Judah become guilty. "Do not go to Gilgal; do not go up to Beth Aven. And do not swear, 'As surely as the Lord lives!'
16The Israelites are stubborn, like a stubborn heifer. How then can the Lord pasture them like lambs in a meadow?
17Ephraim is joined to idols 6; leave him alone!
18Even when their drinks are gone, they continue their prostitution; their rulers dearly love shameful 7 ways.
19A whirlwind will sweep them away, and their sacrifices will bring them shame.
