Hosea 4:1-5

1HearH8085 the wordH1697 of Jehovah, ye children of IsraelH3478; for Jehovah hath a controversy with the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776; for there is no truthH571, nor goodness, nor knowledgeH1847 of 1GodH430 in the landH776.

2SwearingH422, and lying, and killing, and stealingH1589, and committingH5003 adulteryH5003, — they breakH6555 out; and bloodH1818 toucheth bloodH1818.

3For this shall the landH776 mournH56, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languishH535, with the beasts of the fieldH7704, and with the fowl of the heavensH8064, yea, the fishes of the seaH3220 alsoH1571 shall be taken away.

4Yet let no manH376 strive, and let no manH376 reproveH3198; for thy peopleH5971 are as they that strive with the priestH3548.

5And thou shalt stumbleH3782 by dayH3117; and the prophetH5030 alsoH1571 shall stumbleH3782 with thee by nightH3915: and I will destroyH1820 thy motherH517.
