Young's Literal Translation
Hosea, Chapter 6

   1: 'Come, and we turn back unto Jehovah, For He hath torn, and He doth heal us, He doth smite, and He bindeth us up.
   2: He doth revive us after two days, In the third day He doth raise us up, And we live before Him.
   3: And we know -- we pursue to know Jehovah, As the dawn prepared is His going forth, And He cometh in as a shower to us, As gathered rain -- sprinkling earth.'
   4: What do I do to thee, O Ephraim? What do I do to thee, O Judah? Your goodness [is] as a cloud of the morning, And as dew rising early -- going.
   5: Therefore I have hewed by prophets, I have slain them by sayings of My mouth, And My judgments to the light goeth forth.
   6: For kindness I desired, and not sacrifice, And a knowledge of God above burnt-offerings.
   7: And they, as Adam, transgressed a covenant, There they dealt treacherously against me.
   8: Gilead [is] a city of workers of iniquity, Slippery from blood.
   9: And as bands do wait for a man, A company of priests do murder -- the way to Shechem, For wickedness they have done.
   10: In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing, There [is] the whoredom of Ephraim -- defiled is Israel.
   11: Also, O Judah, appointed is a harvest to thee, In My turning back [to] the captivity of My people!
