They have dealt treacherously against Jehovah; for they havebegotten strange children: now shall the new moon devour them, with their allotted possessions.

For I delight in loving-kindness, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt-offerings.

But they like Adam have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.

They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; Jehovah hath no delight in them. Now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
