Hosea 4:7-9
New Catholic Bible
7 The more the number of priests increased,
the more they sinned against me,
turning their glory into shame.
8 They feed on the sins of my people;
they are insatiable in their hunger for iniquity.
9 The priests and the people will share the same fate;
I shall punish them for their conduct
and repay them for their deeds.

Hosea 4:7-9
New International Version
7 The more priests there were,
the more they sinned against me;
they exchanged their glorious God[a](A) for something disgraceful.(B)
8 They feed on the sins of my people
and relish their wickedness.(C)
9 And it will be: Like people, like priests.(D)
I will punish both of them for their ways
and repay them for their deeds.(E)
