Hosea 14:1-3
Legacy Standard Bible
Yahweh’s Anger Turns Away from Israel
14 [a](A)Return, O Israel, to Yahweh your God,
For you have stumbled in your (B)iniquity.
2 Take words with you and return to Yahweh.
Say to Him, “(C)Forgive all iniquity
And [b]take what is good,
That we may (D)pay in full [c]the fruit of our lips.
3 Assyria will not save us;
We will (E)not ride on horses,
Nor will we say again, ‘(F)Our god,’
To the (G)work of our hands;
For in (H)You the [d]orphan finds compassion.”

A Plea to Repent
14 Israel, return to the Lord your God,(A)
for you have stumbled in your iniquity.(B)
2 Take words of repentance with you(C)
and return to the Lord.
Say to him, “Forgive all our iniquity
and accept what is good,
so that we may repay you
with praise[a] from our[b] lips.(D)
3 Assyria will not save us,(E)
we will not ride on horses,(F)
and we will no longer proclaim, ‘Our gods!’ (G)
to the work of our hands.(H)
For the fatherless receives compassion in you.”(I)
