Hoshea - Hosea - Chapter 14

Chapter 14

1. Samaria shall be accounted guilty, for she has rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword, their infants shall be dashed, and their pregnant women shall be ripped up.		א.
2. Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God, for you have stumbled in your iniquity.		ב.
3. Take words with yourselves and return to the Lord. Say, "You shall forgive all iniquity and teach us [the] good [way], and let us render [for] bulls [the offering of] our lips.		ג.
4. Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride on horses, nor will we say any longer, our gods, to the work of our hands, for in You, by Whom the orphan is granted mercy."		ד.
5. I will remedy their backsliding; I will love them freely, for My wrath has turned away from them.		ה.
6. I will be like dew to Israel, they shall blossom like a rose, and it shall strike its roots like the Lebanon.		ו.
7. Its branches shall go forth, and its beauty shall be like the olive tree, and its fragrance like the Lebanon.		ז.
8. Those who dwelt in its shade shall return; they shall revive [like] corn and blossom like the vine; its fragrance shall be like the wine of Lebanon.		ח.
9. Ephraim; What more do I need the images? I will answer him and I will look upon him: I am like a leafy cypress tree; from Me your fruit is found.		ט.
10. Who is wise and will understand these, discerning and will know them; for the ways of the Lord are straight, and the righteous shall walk in them, and the rebellious shall stumble on them.		י.
