Hosea 4:1-5

¹Hear the word of the LORD,

O children of Israel,

for the LORD has a case

against the people of the land:

“There is no truth, no loving devotion,

and no knowledge of God in the land!

²Cursing and lying,

murder and stealing,

and adultery are rampant;

one act of bloodshed follows another.

³Therefore the land mourns,

and all who dwell in it will waste away

with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air;

even the fish of the sea disappear.

⁴But let no man contend;

let no man offer reproof;

for your people are like those

who contend with a priest.

⁵You will stumble by day,

and the prophet will stumble with you by night;

so I will destroy your mother—

— Hosea 4:1-5
