Hosea 6:7 ASV

⁵  Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are `as' the light that goeth forth.

⁶  For I desire goodness, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt-offerings.

⁷  But they like Adam have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.

⁸  Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity; it is stained with blood.

⁹  And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way toward Shechem; yea, they have committed lewdness.
