Hosea 6:8 Context
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. 10I haue seene an horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the whoredome of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
