Hosea 4:3-5

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³Therefore the land mourns,
    and all who dwell in it languish,
and also the beasts of the field,
    and the birds of the air;
    and even the fish of the sea are taken away.

⁴Yet let no one contend,
    and let none accuse,
    for with you is my contention, O priest.^[a]
⁵You shall stumble by day,
    the prophet also shall stumble with you by night;
    and I will destroy your mother.
