A Call to Repentance
1 Come, and let us return to the Lord;
For He has torn, but He will heal us;
He has stricken, but He will [a]bind us up.
1 Come, and let us return to the Lord;

On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.
On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.

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.
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.

So the company of priests murder on the way to Shechem;
Surely they commit lewdness.

There is the [f]harlotry of Ephraim;
Israel is defiled.

When I return the captives of My people.
