Hosea 5:15–6:3

¹⁵Then I will return to my lair^f

until they have borne their guilt^g

and seek my face^h—

in their miseryⁱ

they will earnestly seek me.^j”

Israel Unrepentant

6“Come, let us return^k to the Lord.

He has torn us to pieces^l

but he will heal us;^m

he has injured us

but he will bind up our wounds.ⁿ

²After two days he will revive us;^o

on the third day^p he will restore^q us,

that we may live in his presence.

³Let us acknowledge the Lord;

let us press on to acknowledge him.

As surely as the sun rises,

he will appear;

he will come to us like the winter rains,^r

like the spring rains that water the earth.^s”
