Hear the word of the LORD, you children of Israel, for the LORD brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land: "There is no truth or mercy or knowledge of God in the land.
By swearing and lying, killing and stealing and committing adultery, they break all restraint, with bloodshed upon bloodshed.
Therefore the land will mourn; and everyone who dwells there will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea will be taken away.

"Now let no man contend, or rebuke another; for your people are like those who contend with the priest.
Therefore you shall stumble in the day; the prophet also shall stumble with you in the night; and I will destroy your mother.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

"The more they increased, the more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame.
They eat up the sin of My people; they set their heart on their iniquity.
And it shall be: like people, like priest. So I will punish them for their ways, and reward them for their deeds.

-- Quoted Verbatim From Hosea 4:1-9(NKJ)

Here's a 3D view from Malachi:

Mal 3:7
7 Yet from the days of your fathers you have gone away from My ordinances and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you," says the LORD of hosts. "But you said, 'In what way shall we return?' (NKJ)

And Here's the Way...

1 Cor 1:
Verse 5-- For in him you have been enriched in every way-- in all your speaking and in all your knowledge--(NIV)
