Hosea 4:2

Yahweh Has An Indictment

¹ Hear the word of Yahweh, children of Israel, for Yahweh has an indictment against the inhabitants of the land. There is no faithfulness or loyalty, there is no knowledge of God in the land. ² Swearing and lying, murdering and stealing, and adultery break out, and bloodshed follows bloodshed. ³ Therefore the land mourns, and all [those] living in it languish with the animals of the field, and the birds of the heaven, and even the fish of the sea are being swept away.
