4WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 with you, O 4EphraimH669? WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 with you, O JudahH3063? For your 5loyaltyH2617 is like a 6morningH1242 cloudH6051 And like the dewH2919 which goesH1980 away earlyH7925.5ThereforeH5921H3651 I have 7hewnH2672 them in piecesH2672 by the prophetsH5030; I have slainH2026 them by the 8wordsH561 of My mouthH6310; And the judgmentsH4941 on you are like the lightH216 that goesH3318 forthH3318.6For 9I delightH2654 in loyaltyH2617 10ratherH3808 thanH3808 sacrificeH2077, And in the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430 ratherH4480 thanH4480 burntH5930 offeringsH5930.
