ylt - Hosea:6:1-7:16

ylt@Hosea: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.

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

ylt@Hosea: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.'

ylt@Hosea: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.

ylt@Hosea: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.

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

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

ylt@Hosea:6:8 @Gilead [is] a city of workers of iniquity, Slippery from blood.

ylt@Hosea: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.

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

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

ylt@Hosea:7:1 @'When I give healing to Israel, Then revealed is the iniquity of Ephraim, And the wickedness of Samaria, For they have wrought falsehood, And a thief doth come in, Stript off hath a troop in the street,

ylt@Hosea:7:2 @And they do not say to their heart, [That] all their evil I have remembered, Now compassed them have their doings, Over-against My face they have been.

ylt@Hosea:7:3 @With their wickedness they make glad a king, And with their lies -- princes.

ylt@Hosea:7:4 @All of them [are] adulterers, Like a burning oven of a baker, He ceaseth from stirring up after kneading the dough, till its leavening.

ylt@Hosea:7:5 @A day of our king! Princes have polluted themselves [with] the poison of wine, He hath drawn out his hand with scorners.

ylt@Hosea:7:6 @For they have drawn near, As an oven [is] their heart, In their lying in wait all the night sleep doth their baker, Morning! he is burning as a flaming fire.

ylt@Hosea:7:7 @All of them are warm as an oven, And they have devoured their judges, All their kings have fallen, There is none calling unto Me among them.

ylt@Hosea:7:8 @Ephraim! among peoples he mixeth himself, Ephraim hath been a cake unturned.

ylt@Hosea:7:9 @Devoured have strangers his power, And he hath not known, Also old age hath sprinkled [itself] on him, And he hath not known.

ylt@Hosea:7:10 @And humbled hath been the excellency of Israel to his face, And they have not turned back unto Jehovah their God, Nor have they sought Him for all this.

ylt@Hosea:7:11 @And Ephraim is as a simple dove without heart, Egypt they called on -- [to] Asshur they have gone.

ylt@Hosea:7:12 @When they go I spread over them My net, As the fowl of the heavens I bring them down, I chastise them as their company hath heard.

ylt@Hosea:7:13 @Wo to them, for they wandered from Me, Destruction to them, for they transgressed against Me, And I -- I ransom them, and they have spoken lies against Me,

ylt@Hosea:7:14 @And have not cried unto Me with their heart, but howl on their beds, For corn and new wine they assemble themselves, They turn aside against Me.

ylt@Hosea:7:15 @And I instructed -- I strengthened their arms, And concerning Me they think evil!

ylt@Hosea:7:16 @They turn back -- not to the Most High, They have been as a deceitful bow, Fall by sword do their princes, From the insolence of their tongue, This [is] their derision in the land of Egypt!
