Hosea 6

KING JAMES BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.	1 In their affliction they will rise early to me: Come, and let us return to the Lord:
2 After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.	2 For he hath taken us, and he will heal us: he will strike, and he will cure us.
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.	3 He will revive us after two days: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. We shall know, and we shall follow on, that we may know the Lord. His going forth is prepared as the morning light, and he will come to us as the early and the latter rain to 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.	4 What shall I do to thee, O Ephraim? what shall I do to thee, O Juda? your mercy is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that goeth away in the morning.
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.	5 For this reason have I hewed them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments shall go forth as the light.
6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.	6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice: and the knowledge of God more than holocausts.
7 But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.	7 But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant, there have they dealt treacherously against me.
8 Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood.	8 Galaad is a city of workers of idols, supplanted with blood.
9 And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.	9 And like the jaws of highway robbers, they conspire with the priests who murder in the way those that pass out Sichem: for they have wrought wickedness.
10 I have seen an horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the whoredom of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.	10 I have seen a horrible thing in the house of Israel: the fornications of Ephraim there: Israel is defiled.
11 Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people.	11 And thou also, O Juda, set thee a harvest, when I shall bring back captivity of my people.
