8The sin of my people is like food to them; and their desire is for their wrongdoing.
9And the priest will be like the people; I will give them punishment for their evil ways, and the reward of their acts.
10They will have food, but they will not be full; they will be false to me, but they will not be increased, because they no longer give thought to the Lord.
12My people get knowledge from their tree, and their rod gives them news; for a false spirit is the cause of their wandering, and they have been false to their God.
13They make offerings on the tops of mountains, burning perfumes in high places, under trees of every sort, because their shade is good: and so your daughters are given up to loose ways and your brides are false to their husbands.
14I will not give punishment to your daughters or your brides for their evil behaviour; for they make themselves separate with loose women, and make offerings with those who are used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods: the people who have no wisdom will be sent away.
