Hosea 6:3-5
21st Century King James Version

3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord; His going forth is prepared as the morning; and He shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

4 “O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? For your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.

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.

Hosea 6:3-5
New International Version

3 Let us acknowledge the Lord;
    let us press on to acknowledge him.
As surely as the sun rises,
    he will appear;
he will come to us like the winter rains,(A)
    like the spring rains that water the earth.(B)”

4 “What can I do with you, Ephraim?(C)
    What can I do with you, Judah?
Your love is like the morning mist,
    like the early dew that disappears.(D)
5 Therefore I cut you in pieces with my prophets,
    I killed you with the words of my mouth(E)—
    then my judgments go forth like the sun.[a](F)
