Hosea 14

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 14 of 14

1 O Israel, return to Jehovah your God, for you have fallen by your iniquity.

2 Take words with you and return to Jehovah. Say to Him, Lift up all iniquity and take us for good, and we will repay with the calves of our lips.

3 Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride on horses. We shall not say any more to the work of our hands, Our gods! For in You the fatherless finds mercy.
