| 6 1 | "Come, let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn, that he may heal us; he has stricken, and he will bind us up. | The people's insincere repentance. Hs.6.1-7.2 | לְכוּ וְנָשׁוּבָה אֶל־יְהוָה כִּי הוּא טָרָף וְיִרְפָּאֵנוּ יַךְ וְיַחְבְּשֵׁנוּ׃ |
| 2 | After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up, that we may live before him. | יְחַיֵּנוּ מִיֹּמָיִם בַּיֹּום הַשְּׁלִישִׁי יְקִמֵנוּ וְנִחְיֶה לְפָנָיו׃ | |
| 3 | Let us know, let us press on to know Yahweh; his going forth is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth." | וְנֵדְעָה נִרְדְּפָה לָדַעַת אֶת־יְהוָה כְּשַׁחַר נָכֹון מֹוצָאֹו וְיָבֹוא כַגֶּשֶׁם לָנוּ כְּמַלְקֹושׁ יֹורֶה אָרֶץ׃ | |
| 4 | What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? Your love is like a morning cloud, like the dew that goes early away. | מָה אֶעֱשֶׂה־לְּךָ אֶפְרַיִם מָה אֶעֱשֶׂה־לְּךָ יְהוּדָה וְחַסְדְּכֶם כַּעֲןַן־בֹּקֶר וְכַטַּל מַשְׁכִּים הֹלֵךְ׃ | |
| 5 | Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth, and my judgment goes forth as the light. | עַל־כֵּן חָצַבְתִּי בַּנְּבִיאִים הֲרַגְתִּים בְּאִמְרֵי־פִי וּמִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ אֹור יֵצֵא׃ | |
| 6 | For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God, rather than burnt offerings. | כִּי חֶסֶד חָפַצְתִּי וְלֹא־זָבַח וְדַעַת אֱלֹהִים מֵעֹלֹות׃ | |
| 7 | But at Adam they transgressed the covenant; there they dealt faithlessly with me. | וְהֵמָּה כְּאָדָם עָבְרוּ בְרִית שָׁם בָּגְדוּ בִי׃ | |
