Hos 5:10 The princes of Judah have become like those who move a boundary; On them I will pour out My wrath like water.
Hos 5:11 Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment, Because he was determined to follow man's command.
Hos 5:12 Therefore I am like a moth to Ephraim And like rottenness to the house of Judah.
Hos 5:13 When Ephraim saw his sickness, And Judah his wound, Then Ephraim went to Assyria And sent to King Jareb. But he is unable to heal you, Or to cure you of your wound.
Hos 5:14 For I will be like a lion to Ephraim And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear to pieces and go away, I will carry away, and there will be none to deliver.
Hos 5:15 I will go away and return to My place Until they acknowledge their guilt and seek My face; In their affliction they will earnestly seek Me.
Hos 6:1 "Come, let us return to the LORD. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us.
Hos 6:2 "He will revive us after two days; He will raise us up on the third day, That we may live before Him.
Hos 6:3 "So let us know, let us press on to know the LORD. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth."
Hos 6:4 ¶ What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning cloud And like the dew which goes away early.
Hos 6:5 Therefore I have hewn them in pieces by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth; And the judgments on you are like the light that goes forth.
Hos 6:6 For I delight in loyalty rather than sacrifice, And in the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
Hos 6:7 But like Adam they have transgressed the covenant; There they have dealt treacherously against Me.
Hos 6:9 And as raiders wait for a man, So a band of priests murder on the way to Shechem; Surely they have committed crime.
Hos 6:10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing; Ephraim's harlotry is there, Israel has defiled itself.
Hos 6:11 Also, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, When I restore the fortunes of My people.
Hos 7:1 When I would heal Israel, The iniquity of Ephraim is uncovered, And the evil deeds of Samaria, For they deal falsely; The thief enters in, Bandits raid outside,
Hos 7:2 And they do not consider in their hearts That I remember all their wickedness. Now their deeds are all around them; They are before My face.
Hos 7:3 With their wickedness they make the king glad, And the princes with their lies.
Hos 7:4 They are all adulterers, Like an oven heated by the baker Who ceases to stir up the fire From the kneading of the dough until it is leavened.
