My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.	As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.	They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
