'Sin' in the Bible

They eat the sin of my people, and their soul longeth for their iniquity.

Because Ephraim hath multiplied altars to sin, altars shall be unto him to sin.

And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up upon their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us! and to the hills, Fall on us!

And Ephraim saith, Nevertheless I am become rich, I have found me out substance; in all my labours they shall find none iniquity in me that were sin.

And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, idols according to their own understanding, all of it the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves.

The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid by in store.
