YAHWAH...my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge

Amos 3 TNIV



7 Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing
without revealing his plan
to his servants the prophets.




Hosea 4 TNIV


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—

6 my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.
"Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also reject you as my priests;
because you have ignored the law of your God,
I also will ignore your children.

7 The more the priests increased,
the more they sinned against me;
they exchanged their glorious God [b] for something disgraceful.

8 They feed on the sins of my people
and relish their wickedness.

9 And it will be: Like people, like priests.
I will punish both of them for their ways
and repay them for their deeds.
10 "They will eat but not have enough;
they will engage in prostitution but not increase,
because they have deserted the LORD
to give themselves 11 to prostitution;
old wine and new wine
take away their understanding.

12 My people consult a wooden idol of a woman
