6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge [of My law, where I reveal My will]. Because you [the priestly nation] have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children. 7 The more they multiplied [in numbers and increased in power], the more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame. 8 They (the priests) feed on the sin offering of My people And set their heart on their wickedness. 9 And it shall be: like people, like priest [both are wicked and both will be judged]; So I will punish them for their ways And repay them for their deeds.
