Hosea 4:7-12 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

7. The more priests there were,the more they sinned against me;they exchanged their glorious God for something disgraceful.

8. They feed on the sins of my peopleand relish their wickedness.

9. And it will be: like people, like priests.I will punish both of them for their waysand repay them for their deeds.

10. ‘They will eat but not have enough;they will engage in prostitution but not flourish,because they have deserted the Lordto give themselves

11. to prostitution;old wine and new winetake away their understanding.

12. My people consult a wooden idol,and a diviner’s rod speaks to them.A spirit of prostitution leads them astray;they are unfaithful to their God.
