Hosea 6:4-6

English Standard Version Anglicised

⁴ What shall I do with you, ^(A)O ^(B)Ephraim?
    What shall I do with you, O ^(C)Judah?
Your love is ^(D)like a morning cloud,
    ^(E)like the dew that goes early away.
⁵ Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets;
    I have slain them ^(F)by the words of my mouth,
    and my judgement goes forth as the light.
⁶ For ^(G)I desire steadfast love^[a] and not sacrifice,
    ^(H)the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
