Hosea 6:3-5

American Standard Version

³ And let us know, let us follow on to know Jehovah: his going forth is sure as the morning; and he will come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth.

⁴ O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your ^[a]goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that goeth early away. ⁵ Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and ^[b]thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.
