Hosea 14:2-9

2TakeH3947 wordsH1697 with you and returnH7725 to the LordH3068. SayH559 to Him, “1TakeH5375 away allH3605 guiltH5771 And 2receiveH3947 us graciouslyH2896, So that we may 3presentH7999 4the fruitH6529 of our lipsH8193.3AssyriaH804 will not saveH3467 us, We will 5not rideH7392 on horsesH5483; NorH3808 will we sayH559 againH5750, ‘6Our godH430’ To the 7workH4639 of our handsH3027; For in 8You the 9orphanH3490 findsH7355 mercyH7355.”

4I will 10healH7495 their apostasyH4878, I will 11loveH157 them freelyH5071, BecauseH3588 My angerH639 has 12turnedH7725 awayH7725 from them.5I will be like the 13dewH2919 to IsraelH3478; He will blossomH6524 like the 14lilyH7799, And he will 15takeH5221 rootH8328 like the cedars of 16LebanonH3844.6His shootsH3127 will 17sproutH1980, His 18majestyH1935 will be like the 19oliveH2132 treeH2132, And his fragranceH7381 like the cedars of 20LebanonH3844.7Those who 21liveH3427 in his shadowH6738 Will 22againH7725 raiseH2421 23grainH1715, And they will blossomH6524 like the vineH1612. His fameH2143 will be like the wineH3196 of LebanonH3844.

8EphraimH669, whatH4100 moreH5750 have I to do with 24idolsH6091? It is I who answerH6030 and lookH7789 afterH7789 25you. I am like a luxuriantH7488 26juniperH1265; From 27Me 28comesH4672 your fruitH6529.

929WhoeverH4310 is wiseH2450, let him understandH995 theseH428 thingsH428; Whoever is discerningH995, let him knowH3045 them. For the 30waysH1870 of the LordH3068 are rightH3477, And the 31righteousH6662 will walkH1980 in them, But 32wrongdoersH6586 will stumbleH3782 in them.
