Hosea 6:3-6
3So let us know— let us press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the rain, like the spring showers that water the earth.
4What shall I do with you, O Ephraim1?What shall I do with you, O Judah?For your loyalty is like a morning mist,like the early dew that vanishes.5Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets;I have slain them by the words of My mouth,and My judgments go forth like lightning.6For I desire mercy, not sacrifice,2and the knowledge of Godrather than burnt offerings.
