7“The more they increased,
The more they sinned against Me;
iI 3will change 4their glory into shame.
8They eat up the sin of My people;
They set their 5heart on their iniquity.
9And it shall be: jlike people, like priest.
So I will punish them for their ways,
And 6reward them for their deeds.
10For kthey shall eat, but not have enough;
They shall commit harlotry, but not increase;
Because they have ceased obeying the Lord.

The more priests there are,
the more they sin against me.
They have exchanged the glory of God
for the shame of idols.
“When the people bring their sin offerings, the priests get fed.
So the priests are glad when the people sin!
‘And what the priests do, the people also do.’
So now I will punish both priests and people
for their wicked deeds.
They will eat and still be hungry.
They will play the prostitute and gain nothing from it,
for they have deserted the Lord

KJV 1900King James Version
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.
And there shall be, like people, like priest:
And I will punish them for their ways,
And reward them their doings.
For they shall eat, and not have enough:
They shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase:
Because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
