1 Come, and let us return to the Lord;For He has torn, but He will heal us;He has stricken, but He will bind us up.
2 After two days He will revive us;On the third day He will raise us up,That we may live in His sight.
3 Let us know,Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord.His going forth is established as the morning;He will come to us like the rain,Like the latter and former rain to the earth.
4 “O Ephraim, what shall I do to you?O Judah, what shall I do to you?For your faithfulness is like a morning cloud,And like the early dew it goes away.
5 Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets,I have slain them by the words of My mouth;And your judgments are like light that goes forth.
