Hosea 6:1-7
1ComeH1980, let us returnH7725 toH413 the LORDH3068.
ForH3588 HeH1931 has torn us to piecesH2963,but He will heal usH7495;He has wounded usH5221,but He will bind up our woundsH2280.2After two daysH3117 He will revive usH2421;on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 He will raise us upH6965,that we may liveH2421 in His presenceH6440.3So let us knowH3045—let us press onH7291 to knowH3045 the LORDH3068.As surely asH3559 the sun risesH7837,He will appearH4161;He will comeH935 to us like the rainH1653,like the spring showersH4456 that waterH3384 the earthH776.
4WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 with you, O EphraimH6691?WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 with you, O JudahH3063?For your loyaltyH2617 is like a morningH1242 mistH6051,like the earlyH7925 dewH2919 that vanishesH1980.5ThereforeH5921H3651 I have hewnH2672 them by the prophetsH5030;I have slain themH2026 by the wordsH561 of My mouthH6310,and My judgmentsH4941 go forthH3318 like lightningH216.6ForH3588 I desireH2654 mercyH2617, notH3808 sacrificeH2077,2and the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430rather than burnt offeringsH5930.
