chapter_Hosea_6
Hosea 6:1: 'Come, and we turn back unto Jehovah, For He hath torn, and He doth heal us, He doth smite, and He bindeth us up. Hosea 6:2: He doth revive us after two days, In the third day He doth raise us up, And we live before Him. Hosea 6:3: And we know &#8212; we pursue to know Jehovah, As the dawn prepared is His going forth, And He cometh in as a shower to us, As gathered rain &#8212; sprinkling earth.' Hosea 6:4: What do I do to thee, O Ephraim? What do I do to thee, O Judah? Your goodness is as a cloud of the morning, And as dew rising early &#8212; going. Hosea 6:5: Therefore I have hewed by prophets, I have slain them by sayings of My mouth, And My judgments to the light goeth forth. Hosea 6:6: For kindness I desired, and not sacrifice, And a knowledge of God above burnt-offerings. Hosea 6:7: And they, as Adam, transgressed a covenant, There they dealt treacherously against me. Hosea 6:8: Gilead is a city of workers of iniquity, Slippery from blood. Hosea 6:9: And as bands do wait for a man, A company of priests do murder &#8212; the way to Shechem, For wickedness they have done. Hosea 6:10: In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing, There is the whoredom of Ephraim &#8212; defiled is Israel. Hosea 6:11: Also, O Judah, appointed is a harvest to thee, In My turning back to the captivity of My people!
