8The sin of My people they do eat, And unto their iniquity lift up their soul.


In Context

5 And thou hast stumbled in the day, And stumbled hath also a prophet with thee in the night, And I have cut off thy mother.

6 Cut off have been My people for lack of knowledge, Because thou knowledge hast rejected, I reject thee from being priest to Me, And thou forgettest the law of thy God, I forget thy sons, I also!

7 According to their abundance so they sinned against Me, Their honour into shame I change.

8 The sin of My people they do eat, And unto their iniquity lift up their soul.

9 And it hath been, like people, like priest, And I have charged on it its ways, And its habitual doings I return to it.

10 And they have eaten, and are not satisfied, They have gone a-whoring, and increase not, For they have left off taking heed to Jehovah.
