Hosea 6:11-7:2
Expanded Bible
11 “Judah, I have ·set [appointed] a harvest time for you
when I will ·make the lives of my people good again [restore the fortunes of my people; or return my people from captivity].
7 When I heal Israel,
Israel’s sin will ·go away [or be revealed/exposed],
and so will Samaria’s evil.
“They ·cheat a lot [practice deceit; commit fraud]!
Thieves ·break into houses [L come in],
and ·robbers [gangs] ·are in the streets [raid/pillage outside].
2 ·It never enters their minds [L They never say in their hearts]
that I remember all their evil deeds.
The bad things they do ·are all around [engulf; surround] them;
they are ·right in front of me [always before my face].

New American Standard Bible
11 Also, Judah, there is a (A)harvest appointed for you,
When I (B)restore the fortunes of My people.
Ephraim’s Wrongdoing
7 When I (C)would heal Israel,
The wrongdoing of Ephraim is uncovered,
And the evil deeds of Samaria,
For they practice (D)deception;
The thief enters,
A band of (E)robbers attack outside,
2 And they do not [a]consider in their hearts
That I (F)remember all their wickedness.
Now their (G)deeds surround them;
They are before My face.
