Hosea 6:8

Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets;

I killed them with the words of my mouth.

Your judgments are like a flash of lightning.

For I desire mercy, and not sacrifice;

and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant.

They were unfaithful to me there.

As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man,

so the company of priests murder on the path toward Shechem,

committing shameful crimes.

In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing.

There is prostitution in Ephraim.

Israel is defiled.

“Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you,

when I restore the fortunes of my people.
