In context

²Cursing and lying, murder and stealing, and adultery are rampant; one act of bloodshed follows another.

³Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea disappear.

⁴But let no man contend; let no man offer reproof; for your people are like those who contend with a priest.

⁵You will stumble by day, and the prophet will stumble with you by night; so I will destroy your mother—

⁶My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as My priests. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.
