8 They feed on the sins of my people

and relish their wickedness.

9 And it will be: Like people, like priests.

I will punish both of them for their ways

and repay them for their deeds.

8 They eat up the sin of my people,

And they set their heart on their iniquity.

9 And there shall be, like people, like priest:

And I will punish them for their ways,

And reward them their doings.

8 “When the people bring their sin offerings, the priests get fed.

So the priests are glad when the people sin!

9 ‘And what the priests do, the people also do.’

So now I will punish both priests and people

for their wicked deeds.

8 They eat up the sin of My people;

They set their heart on their iniquity.

9 And it shall be: like people, like priest.

So I will punish them for their ways,

And reward them for their deeds.

8 Since the priests live off the sin offerings of the people,

they want the people to sin more and more.

9 The priests are as wrong as the people,

and I will punish them both for what they have done.

I will repay them for the wrong they have done.

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.

8 They eat the sin of my people, and their soul longeth for their iniquity. 9 And it shall be as the people so the priest; and I will visit their ways upon them, and recompense to them their doings;

8 They feed on the sins of my people, 

and they want them to do wicked things. 

9 So the priests will be punished like the people. 

I will punish them for their wicked ways 

and pay them back for what they have done. 

8 They feed on the sin of My people;

they have an appetite for their transgressions.

9 The same judgment will happen

to both people and priests.

I will punish them for their ways

and repay them for their deeds.

8 They feed on the sin of my people;

they are greedy for their iniquity.

9 And it shall be like people, like priest;

I will punish them for their ways,

and repay them for their deeds.

8 They feed on the sin of my people,

they are greedy for their iniquity.

9 And it will be like people, like priest;

I will punish them for their ways,

and I will requite them for their deeds.

8 They live off the sins of my people.

And they want them to keep on sinning.

9 So here is what I will do.

I will punish people and priests alike.

I will judge them because of their sinful lives.

I will pay them back

for the evil things they have done.

8 They feed on the sin of My people

And direct their desire toward their iniquity.

9 And it will be, like people, like priest;

So I will punish them for their ways

And repay them for their deeds.
