Osee Propheta 6

1 in tribulatione sua mane consurgunt ad me venite et revertamur ad Dominum

'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.

2 quia ipse cepit et sanabit nos percutiet et curabit nos

After two days will He revive us, on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His presence.

3 vivificabit nos post duos dies in die tertia suscitabit nos et vivemus in conspectu eius sciemus sequemurque ut cognoscamus Dominum quasi diluculum praeparatus est egressus eius et veniet quasi imber nobis temporaneus et serotinus terrae

8 Galaad civitas operantium idolum subplantata sanguine

Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, it is covered with footprints of blood.

9 et quasi fauces virorum latronum particeps sacerdotum in via interficientium pergentes de Sychem quia scelus operati sunt

And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so doth the company of priests; they murder in the way toward Shechem; yea, they commit enormity.

10 in domo Israhel vidi horrendum ibi fornicationes Ephraim contaminatus est Israhel

In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing; there harlotry is found in Ephraim, Israel is defiled.

11 sed et Iuda pone messem tibi cum convertero captivitatem populi mei

Also, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for thee! When I would turn the captivity of My people,
