Hosea 6:7 Context
5Therefore haue I shewed them by the Prophets: I haue slaine them by the wordes of my mouth, and thy iudgements are as the light that goeth foorth. 6For I desired mercie, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more then burnt offerings. 7But they like men haue transgressed the Couenant: there haue they dealt treacherously against me. 8Gilead is a city of them that worke iniquitie; and is polluted with blood. 9And as troupes of robbers waite for a man, so the company of priestes murther in the way by consent: for they commit lewdnesse.
