Hosea 4:2-4

Expanded Bible

² [^LThere is only] Cursing, lying, ·killing [murder], stealing and adultery are everywhere.
    ·One murder follows another [^LThey break out and blood touches blood].
³ Because of this the land ·dries up [or mourns],
    and all its ·people [inhabitants] ·are dying [languish; waste away].
Even the ·wild animals [^Lbeasts of the field] and the birds of the air
    and the fish of the sea are ·dying [gathered; taken/swept away].

⁴ “·No one should [Let no one] ·accuse [bring a charge]
    or ·blame [contend against] another person.
·Don’t blame the people, you priests,
    when they quarrel with you [or For my case is against you, the priests].
