Hosea 6:3-7

3So let’s 1learnH3045, let’s pressH7291 onH7291 to knowH3045 the LordH3068. His 2appearanceH4161 is as sureH3559 as the dawnH7837; And He will comeH935 to us like the 3rainH1653, As the springH4456 rainH4456 watersH3384 the earthH776.”

4WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 with you, 4EphraimH669? WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 with you, JudahH3063? For your loyaltyH2617 is like a 5morningH1242 cloudH6051, And like the dewH2919 which goesH1980 away earlyH7925.5ThereforeH5921H3651 I have 6cutH2672 them inH2672 piecesH2672 by the prophetsH5030; I have slainH2026 them by the 7wordsH561 of My mouthH6310; And the judgmentsH4941 on you are like the lightH216 that 8shinesH3318.6For 9I 10desireH2654 loyaltyH2617 11ratherH3808 thanH3808 sacrificeH2077, And the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430 ratherH4480 thanH4480 burntH5930 offeringsH5930.7But 12like 13AdamH121 they have 14violatedH5674 the covenantH1285; ThereH8033 they have 15dealtH898 treacherouslyH898 with Me.
