Hosea 6:4-6
Revised Standard Version
Impenitence of Israel and Judah
4 What shall I do with you, O E′phraim?
What shall I do with you, O Judah?
Your love is like a morning cloud,
like the dew that goes early away.
5 Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets,
I have slain them by the words of my mouth,
and my judgment goes forth as the light.[a]
6 For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice,
the knowledge of God, rather than burnt offerings.
