Hosea 5:15-6:3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁵ I will return again to my place
    until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face.
    In their distress they will beg my favour:

6 ‘Come, let us return to the Lord;
    for it is he who has torn, and he will heal us;
    he has struck down, and he will bind us up.
² After two days he will revive us;
    on the third day he will raise us up,
    that we may live before him.
³ Let us know, let us press on to know the Lord;
    his appearing is as sure as the dawn;
he will come to us like the showers,
    like the spring rains that water the earth.’
