Hosea 6

The Response to God's Rebuke

1

aComeh1980, let us returnh7725 to the LORDh3068. For  bHe has tornh2963 us, but  cHe will healh7495 us; He has  1woundedh5221 us, but He will  dbandageh2280 us.

2

"He will  areviveh2421a us afterh4480 two daysh3117; He will  braiseh6965 us up on the thirdh7992 dayh3117, That we may liveh2421a beforeh6440 Him.

3

"So let us  aknowh3045, let us pressh7291 on to knowh3045 the LORDh3068. His  bgoingh4161 forthh4161 is as certainh3559 as the dawnh7837; And He will comeh935 to us like the  crainh1653, Like the springh4456 rainh4456 wateringh3384 the earthh776."

4

Whath4100 shall I doh6213a with you, O  aEphraimh669? Whath4100 shall I doh6213a with you, O Judahh3063? For your  1loyaltyh2617a is like a  bmorningh1242 cloudh6051 And like the dewh2919 which goesh1980 away earlyh7925.

5

Thereforeh5921h3651 I have  ahewnh2672 them in piecesh2672 by the prophetsh5030; I have slainh2026 them by the  bwordsh561 of My mouthh6310; And the judgmentsh4941 on you are like the lighth216 that goesh3318 forthh3318.

6

For  aI delighth2654a in loyaltyh2617a  bratherh3808 thanh3808 sacrificeh2077, And in the knowledgeh1847 of Godh430 ratherh4480 thanh4480 burnth5930a offeringsh5930a.

7

But  alike  1Adamh121 they have  btransgressedh5674a the covenanth1285; Thereh8033 they have  cdealth898 treacherouslyh898 against Me.

8

 aGileadh1568 is a cityh7151 of wrongdoersh205, Trackedh6121a with  bbloodyh1818 footprints.

9

And as  araidersh1416 waith2442 for a manh376, So a bandh2267 of priestsh3548  bmurderh7523 on the wayh1870 to Shechemh7927; Surelyh3588 they have committedh6213a  1 ccrimeh2154.

10

In the househ1004 of Israelh3478 I have seenh7200 a  ahorribleh8186b thingh8186b; Ephraim'sh669  bharlotryh2184 is thereh8033, Israelh3478 has defiledh2930 itself.

11

Alsoh1571, O Judahh3063, there is a  aharvesth7105a appointed for you, When I  brestoreh7725 the fortunesh7622 of My peopleh5971a.
