KJV - Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
My people lose everything because they don't know enough: since you ignored knowing things, I won't choose you as a leader; and because you forgot God's rules, I'll forget your kids too.
