Hosea 4:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁷ The more they increased,
    the more they sinned against me;
    they changed^[a] their glory into shame.
⁸ They feed on the sin of my people;
    they are greedy for their iniquity.
⁹ And it shall be like people, like priest;
    I will punish them for their ways,
    and repay them for their deeds.
