Hosea 4:1
King James Version
4 Hear the word of the Lord,
ye children of Israel:
for the Lord hath a controversy
with the inhabitants of the land,
because there is no truth,
nor mercy,
nor knowledge of God in the land.
Can't figure out this world?
People gone nuts?
World in chaos?
Blame no one for what we are all suffering now.
We're all responsible, for how the world has turned out to be.
