Chapter
1
Come,H3212 and let us returnH7725 to the LORD:H3068 for he has torn,H2963 and he will healH7495 us; he has smitten,H5221 and he will bindH2280 us up.
2
After two daysH3117 will he reviveH2421 us: in the thirdH7992 dayH3117 he will raiseH6965 us up, and we shall liveH2421 in his sight.H6440
3
Then shall we know,H3045 if we followH7291 on to knowH3045 the LORD:H3068 his goingH4161 forthH4161 is preparedH3559 as the morning;H7837 and he shall comeH935 to us as the rain,H1653 as the latterH4456 and formerH3138 rainH3384 to the earth.H776

O Ephraim,H669 whatH4100 shall I doH6213 to you? O Judah,H3063 whatH4100 shall I doH6213 to you? for your goodnessH2617 is as a morningH1242 cloud,H6051 and as the earlyH7925 dewH2919 it goesH1980 away.

ThereforeH5921 H3651 have I hewedH2672 them by the prophets;H5030 I have slainH2026 them by the wordsH561 of my mouth:H6310 and your judgmentsH4941 are as the lightH216 that goesH3318 forth.H3318
6
For I desiredH2654 mercy,H2617 and not sacrifice;H2077 and the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430 more than burntH5930 offerings.

GileadH1568 is a cityH7151 of them that workH6466 iniquity,H205 and is pollutedH6121 with blood.H1818

And as troopsH1416 of robbers waitH2442 for a man,H376 so the companyH2267 of priestsH3548 murderH7523 in the wayH1870 by consent:H7926 for they commitH6213 lewdness.H2154

I have seenH7200 an horribleH8186 thing in the houseH1004 of Israel:H3478 thereH8033 is the prostitutionH2184 of Ephraim,H669 IsraelH3478 is defiled.H2930
11
Also,H1571 O Judah,H3063 he has setH7896 an harvestH7105 for you, when I returnedH7725 the captivityH7622 of my people.H5971
