Hosea 6:2-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 6
2
He will revive us after two days;
He will raise us up on the third day,
That we may live before Him.
3
So let’s learn, let’s press on to know the
Lord
.
His appearance is as sure as the dawn;
And He will come to us like the rain,
As the spring rain waters the earth.'
4
What shall I do with you, Ephraim?
What shall I do with you, Judah?
For your loyalty is like a morning cloud,
And like the dew which goes away early.
5
Therefore I have cut
them
in pieces by the prophets;
I have slain them by the words of My mouth;
And the judgments on you are
like
the light
that
shines.
6
For I desire loyalty rather than sacrifice,
And the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
7
But like Adam they have violated the covenant;
There they have dealt treacherously with Me.
King James Version
Chapter 6
2
After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.
3
Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the
Lord
: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.
4
O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.
5
Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.
6
For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7
But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 6
2
He will revive us after two days,
and on the third day he will raise us up
so we can live in his presence.
3
Let us strive to know the
Lord
.
His appearance is as sure as the dawn.
He will come to us like the rain,
like the spring showers that water the land.
4
What am I going to do with you, Ephraim?
What am I going to do with you, Judah?
Your love is like the morning mist
and like the early dew that vanishes.
5
This is why I have used the prophets
to cut them down;
I have killed them with the words from my mouth.
My judgment strikes like lightning.
6
For I desire faithful love and not sacrifice,
the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
7
But they, like Adam, have violated the covenant;
there they have betrayed me.
New Living Translation
Chapter 6
2
In just a short time he will restore us,
so that we may live in his presence.
3
Oh, that we might know the
Lord
!
Let us press on to know him.
He will respond to us as surely as the arrival of dawn
or the coming of rains in early spring.'
4
'O Israel and Judah,
what should I do with you?' asks the
Lord
.
'For your love vanishes like the morning mist
and disappears like dew in the sunlight.
5
I sent my prophets to cut you to pieces —
to slaughter you with my words,
with judgments as inescapable as light.
6
I want you to show love,
not offer sacrifices.
I want you to know me
more than I want burnt offerings.
7
But like Adam, you broke my covenant
and betrayed my trust.
English Standard Version
Chapter 6
2
After two days he will revive us;
on the third day he will raise us up,
that we may live before him.
3
Let us know; let us press on to know the
Lord
;
his going out is sure as the dawn;
he will come to us as the showers,
as the spring rains that water the earth."
4
What shall I do with you, O Ephraim?
What shall I do with you, O Judah?
Your love is like a morning cloud,
like the dew that goes early away.
5
Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets;
I have slain them by the words of my mouth,
and my judgment goes forth as the light.
6
For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice,
the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.
7
But like Adam they transgressed the covenant;
there they dealt faithlessly with me.
New International Version
Chapter 6
2
After two days he will revive us;
on the third day he will restore us,
that we may live in his presence.
3
Let us acknowledge the
Lord
;
let us press on to acknowledge him.
As surely as the sun rises,
he will appear;
he will come to us like the winter rains,
like the spring rains that water the earth."
4
"What can I do with you, Ephraim?
What can I do with you, Judah?
Your love is like the morning mist,
like the early dew that disappears.
5
Therefore I cut you in pieces with my prophets,
I killed you with the words of my mouth—
then my judgments go forth like the sun.
6
For I desire mercy, not sacrifice,
and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.
7
As at Adam, they have broken the covenant;
they were unfaithful to me there.
New King James Version
Chapter 6
2
After two days He will revive us;
On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.
3
Let us know,
Let us pursue the knowledge of the
Lord
.
His going forth is established as the morning;
He will come to us like the rain,
Like the latter
and
former rain to the earth.
4
“O Ephraim, what shall I do to you?
O Judah, what shall I do to you?
For your faithfulness is like a morning cloud,
And like the early dew it goes away.
5
Therefore I have hewn
them
by the prophets,
I have slain them by the words of My mouth;
And your judgments
are like
light
that
goes forth.
6
For I desire mercy and not sacrifice,
And the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.
7
“But like men they transgressed the covenant;
There they dealt treacherously with Me.
