2 Darános vida después de dos días: al tercer día nos resucitará, y viviremos delante de él.
3 Y conoceremos, y proseguiremos en conocer á Jehová: como el alba está aparejada su salida, y vendrá á nosotros como la lluvia, como la lluvia tardía [y] temprana á la tierra.
4 ¿Qué haré á ti, Ephraim? ¿Qué haré á ti, oh Judá? La piedad vuestra es como la nube de la mañana, y como el rocío que de madrugada viene.

6 Porque misericordia quise, y no sacrificio; y conocimiento de Dios más que holocaustos.
