The Lord Accuses The Priests

⁷ As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me: I will change their glory into shame. ⁸ They feed on the sin of my people, and set their heart on their iniquity. ⁹ And it shall be, like people, like priest; and I will punish them for their ways, and will requite them their doings.
