Hosea 6:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ Therefore I have ^(A)hewn them in pieces by the prophets;
I have slain them by the ^(B)words of My mouth;
And the judgments on you are like the light that goes forth.
⁶ For ^(C)I delight in loyalty ^(D)rather than sacrifice,
And in the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
⁷ But ^(E)like ^[a]Adam they have ^(F)transgressed the covenant;
There they have ^(G)dealt treacherously against Me.
