Hosea 12:3-6
New International Version
3 In the womb he grasped his brother’s heel;(A)
as a man he struggled(B) with God.

he wept and begged for his favor.
He found him at Bethel(C)
and talked with him there—
5 the Lord God Almighty,
the Lord is his name!(D)
6 But you must return(E) to your God;
maintain love and justice,(F)
and wait for your God always.(G)
Hosea 12:3-6
Common English Bible
3 From the womb he tried to be the oldest of twin brothers;
as an adult he struggled with God.
4 He struggled with the messenger and survived;
he wept and sought his favor;
he met him at Bethel,
and there he spoke with him.
5 The Lord God of heavenly forces,
the Lord is his name!
6 But you! Return to your God
with faithful love and justice,
and wait continually for your God.
