Hosea 6:3 in Context — Hosea 6
1 Venez, retournons à l’Éternel! Car il a déchiré, mais il nous guérira; Il a frappé, mais il bandera nos plaies.
2 Il nous rendra la vie dans deux jours; Le troisième jour il nous relèvera, Et nous vivrons devant lui.
3 Connaissons, cherchons à connaître l’Éternel; Sa venue est aussi certaine que celle de l’aurore. Il viendra pour nous comme la pluie, Comme la pluie du printemps qui arrose la terre.
4 Que te ferai-je, Éphraïm? Que te ferai-je, Juda? Votre piété est comme la nuée du matin, Comme la rosée qui bientôt se dissipe.
5 C’est pourquoi je les frapperai par les prophètes, Je les tuerai par les paroles de ma bouche, Et mes jugements éclateront comme la lumière.
