YLT - Hosea - 6

6:1  `Come, and we turn back unto Jehovah, For He hath torn, and He doth heal us, He doth smite, and He bindeth us up.

6:2  He doth revive us after two days, In the third day He doth raise us up, And we live before Him.

6:3  And we know--we pursue to know Jehovah, As the dawn prepared is His going forth, And He cometh in as a shower to us, As gathered rain--sprinkling earth.'

6:4  What do I do to thee, O Ephraim? What do I do to thee, O Judah? Your goodness is as a cloud of the morning, And as dew rising early--going.

6:5  Therefore I have hewed by prophets, I have slain them by sayings of My mouth, And My judgments to the light goeth forth.

6:6  For kindness I desired, and not sacrifice, And a knowledge of God above burnt-offerings.

6:7  And they, as Adam, transgressed a covenant, There they dealt treacherously against me.

6:8  Gilead is a city of workers of iniquity, Slippery from blood.

6:9  And as bands do wait for a man, A company of priests do murder--the way to Shechem, For wickedness they have done.

6:10  In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing, There is the whoredom of Ephraim--defiled is Israel.

6:11  Also, O Judah, appointed is a harvest to thee, In My turning back to the captivity of My people!
