Portions: Hosea 5 - 10

I know all about Ephraim;
Israel is not hidden from me.
Ephraim, you have now turned to prostitution;
Israel is corrupt.
Their deeds do not permit them
to return to their God.
A spirit of prostitution is in their heart;
they do not acknowledge the Lord.
(Hosea 5:3-4)

"Come, let us return to the Lord.
He has torn us to pieces but He will heal us;
He has injured us but He will bind up our wounds.
After two days He will revive us;
on the third day He will restore us,
that we may live in His presence.
(Hosea 6:1-2)

Woe to them,
because they have strayed from me!
Destruction to them,
because they have rebelled against me!
I long to redeem them
but they speak lies against me.
(Hosea 7:13)

Israel cries out to me,
'O our God, we acknowledge you!'
But Israel has rejected what is good;
an enemy will pursue him.
They set up kings without My consent;
they choose princes without My approval.
With their silver and gold
they make idols for themselves
to their own destruction.
(Hosea 8:3-4)

My God will reject them
because they have not obeyed Him;
they will be wanderers among the nations.
(Hosea 9:17)

Sow for yourselves righteousness,
reap the fruit of unfailing love,
and break up your unplowed ground;
for it is time to seek the Lord,
until He comes
and showers righteousness on you.
(Hosea 10:12)
