Bible Reading: Hosea 6:1-3

In their affliction, they shall look for me:
"Come, let us return to the Lord,
For it is he who has rent, but he will heal us;
he has struck us, but he will bind our wounds.
He will revive us after two days;
on the third day he will raise us up,
to live in his presence.
Let us know, let us strive to know the Lord;
as certain as the dawn is his coming,
and his judgment shines forth like the light of day!

He will come to us like the rain,
like spring rain that waters the earth."

Bible Reading: Hosea 12:8-10

A merchant who holds a false balance, who loves to defraud!

Though Ephraim says,

"How rich I have become;

I have made a fortune!"

All his gain shall not suffice him

for the guilt of his sin.

I am the Lord, your God,

since the land of Egypt;

I will again have you live in tents,

In that appointed time.
