Hosea 4:8

The Lord Accuses The Priests

⁷ As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame. ⁸  They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity. ⁹ And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them for their deeds.
