Hosea 4:1-3

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

4 Hear the word of the Lord, O people of Israel;
    for the Lord has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land.
There is no faithfulness or kindness,
    and no knowledge of God in the land;
² there is swearing, lying, killing, stealing, and committing adultery;
    they break all bounds and murder follows murder.
³ Therefore 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.
