Hosea 6:5-7
21st Century King James Version
5 Therefore have I hewn 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 desired mercy, 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.
