6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you,that you may be no priest to me.Because you have forgotten your God’s Torah,I will also forget your children.
7 As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me.I will change their glory into shame.
8 They feed on the sin of my people,and set their heart on their iniquity.
9 It will be, like people, like priest;and I will punish them for their ways,and will repay them for their deeds.
10 They will eat, and not have enough.They will play the prostitute, and will not increase;because they have abandoned giving to the Lord.
11 Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.
12 My people consult with their wooden idol,and answer to a stick of wood.Indeed the spirit of prostitution has led them astray,and they have been unfaithful to their God.
