Hosea 4:2-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 4
2
There is
oath-taking, denial, murder, stealing, and adultery.
They employ violence, so that bloodshed follows bloodshed.
3
Therefore the land mourns,
And everyone who lives in it languishes
Along with the animals of the field and the birds of the sky,
And even the fish of the sea disappear.
4
Yet let no one find fault, and let no one rebuke;
For your people are like those who contend with a priest.
5
So you will stumble by day,
And the prophet also will stumble with you by night;
And I will destroy your mother.
King James Version
Chapter 4
2
By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3
Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
4
Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
5
Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 4
2
Cursing, lying, murder, stealing,
and adultery are rampant;
one act of bloodshed follows another.
3
For this reason the land mourns,
and everyone who lives in it languishes,
along with the wild animals and the birds of the sky;
even the fish of the sea disappear.
4
But let no one dispute; let no one argue,
for my case is against you priests.
5
You will stumble by day;
the prophet will also stumble with you by night.
And I will destroy your mother.
New Living Translation
Chapter 4
2
You make vows and break them;
you kill and steal and commit adultery.
There is violence everywhere —
one murder after another.
3
That is why your land is in mourning,
and everyone is wasting away.
Even the wild animals, the birds of the sky,
and the fish of the sea are disappearing.
4
'Don’t point your finger at someone else
and try to pass the blame!
My complaint, you priests,
is with you.
5
So you will stumble in broad daylight,
and your false prophets will fall with you in the night.
And I will destroy Israel, your mother.
English Standard Version
Chapter 4
2
there is swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery;
they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
3
Therefore the land mourns,
and all who dwell in it languish,
and also the beasts of the field
and the birds of the heavens,
and even the fish of the sea are taken away.
4
Yet let no one contend,
and let none accuse,
for with you is my contention, O priest.
5
You shall stumble by day;
the prophet also shall stumble with you by night;
and I will destroy your mother.
New International Version
Chapter 4
2
There is only cursing, lying and murder,
stealing and adultery;
they break all bounds,
and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
3
Because of this the land dries up,
and all who live in it waste away;
the beasts of the field, the birds in the sky
and the fish in the sea are swept away.
4
"But let no one bring a charge,
let no one accuse another,
for your people are like those
who bring charges against a priest.
5
You stumble day and night,
and the prophets stumble with you.
So I will destroy your mother—
New King James Version
Chapter 4
2
By
swearing and lying,
Killing and stealing and committing adultery,
They break all restraint,
With bloodshed upon bloodshed.
3
Therefore the land will mourn;
And everyone who dwells there will waste away
With the beasts of the field
And the birds of the air;
Even the fish of the sea will be taken away.
4
“Now let no man contend, or rebuke another;
For your people
are
like those who contend with the priest.
5
Therefore you shall stumble in the day;
The prophet also shall stumble with you in the night;
And I will destroy your mother.
