Daily Meditation
4 I will heal their
backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
Today’s Reading
Hosea
Chapter 14
Return Unto The Lord
O Israel, return
unto the Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. 2 Take with you
words, and turn to the Lord: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive
us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips. 3 Asshur shall not
save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work
of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
4 I will heal their
backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him. 5
I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his
roots as Lebanon. 6 His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the
olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon. 7 They that dwell under his shadow shall
return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof
shall be as the wine of Lebanon. 8 Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any
more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir
tree. From me is thy fruit found.
