1 Come 3212, and let us return 7725 unto the LORD 3068: for he hath torn 2963, and he will heal 7495 us; he hath smitten 5221, and he will bind us up 2280.
2 After two days 3117 will he revive 2421 us: in the third 7992 day 3117 he will raise us up 6965, and we shall live 2421 in his sight 6440.
3 Then shall we know 3045, if we follow 7291 on to know 3045 the LORD 3068: his going forth 4161 is prepared 3559 as the morning 7837; and he shall come 935 unto us as the rain 1653, as the latter 4456 and former rain 3384 unto the earth 776.
4 O Ephraim 669, what shall I do 6213 unto thee? O Judah 3063, what shall I do 6213 unto thee? for your goodness 2617 is as a morning 1242 cloud 6051, and as the early 7925 dew 2919 it goeth away 1980.

8 Gilead 1568 is a city 7151 of them that work 6466 iniquity 205, and is polluted 6121 with blood 1818.
9 And as troops 1416 of robbers wait 2442 for a man 376, so the company 2267 of priests 3548 murder 7523 in the way 1870 by consent 7926 7927: for they commit 6213 lewdness 2154.
10 I have seen 7200 an horrible thing 8186 in the house 1004 of Israel 3478: there is the whoredom 2184 of Ephraim 669, Israel 3478 is defiled 2930.
11 Also, O Judah 3063, he hath set 7896 an harvest 7105 for thee, when I returned 7725 the captivity 7622 of my people 5971.
