1. "Come, let us return to the Lord. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us.
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 us know, let us press on to know the Lord. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth."
4. What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning cloud And like the dew which goes away early.
5. Therefore I have hewn 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 goes forth.
