Hosea 6:4-6

LITV(i) 4 O Ephraim, what shall I do to you? O Judah, what shall I do to you? For your goodness is like a morning cloud, and it goes away like the early dew. 5 So I have hewn them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth; and your judgments have been as the light that goes forth. 6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
