1 “Turn back, O Israel, to your God YHWH, || For you have stumbled by your iniquity. 2 Take words with you, and turn to YHWH, || Say to Him, Take away all iniquity, and give good, || And we render the fruit of our lips. 3 Asshur does not save us, we do not ride on a horse, || Nor do we say anymore, Our god, to the work of our hands, || For in You the fatherless find mercy. 4 I heal their backsliding, I love them freely, || For My anger has turned back from him. 5 I am as dew to Israel, he flourishes as a lily, || And he strikes forth his roots as Lebanon. 6 His shoots go on, || And his splendor is as an olive, || And he has fragrance as Lebanon. 7 The dwellers return under his shadow, || They revive [as] grain, and flourish as a vine, || His memorial [is] as wine of Lebanon. 8 O Ephraim, what have I anymore to do with idols? I have answered, and I look after him: I [am] as a green fir-tree, || Your fruit is found from Me. 9 Who [is] wise, and understands these? Prudent, and knows them? For upright are the ways of YHWH, || And the righteous go on in them, || And the transgressors stumble therein!”
