E 2 There is only cursing, [ a ] lying F and murder, G stealing H and adultery; I they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
J 3 Because of this the land dries up, K and all who live in it waste away; L the beasts of the field, the birds in the sky and the fish in the sea are swept away.
N 5 You stumble O day and night, and the prophets stumble with you. So I will destroy your mother P β 6 my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. T 8 They feed on the sins of my people and relish their wickedness.
U 9 And it will be: Like people, like priests. V I will punish both of them for their ways and repay them for their deeds. AJ Therefore your daughters turn to prostitution AK and your daughters-in-law to adultery. There is no faithfulness or steadfast love, and C no knowledge of God in the land; 2 D there is swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery; they break all bounds, and E bloodshed follows bloodshed.
And since you have forgotten the law of your God, O I also will forget your children. For W a spirit of whoredom has led them astray, and they have left their God to play the whore. Therefore your daughters play the whore, and your brides commit adultery.
