1 Hodite da se vratimo ka Gospodu; jer On razdre, i isceliće nas, rani, i zaviće nas. 2 Povratiće nam život do dva dana, treći dan podignuće nas, i živećemo pred Njim. 3 Tada ćemo poznati Gospoda i sve ćemo Ga više poznavati; jer Mu je izlazak uređen kao zora, i doći će nam kao dažd, kao pozni dažd koji natapa zemlju. 4 Šta da ti učinim, Jefreme? Šta da ti učinim, Juda? Jer je dobrota vaša kao oblak jutarnji i kao rosa koja u zoru padne, pa je nestane. 5 Zato ih sekoh preko proroka i ubijah rečima usta svojih, i svetlost sudova tvojih iziđe. 6 Jer je meni milost mila a ne žrtva, i poznavanje Boga većma nego žrtva paljenica. 7 Ali oni prestupiše zavet kao Adam; tu me izneveriše. 8 Galad je grad onih koji čine bezakonje, po njemu su krvavi tragovi. 9 A družina je sveštenička kao četa koja dočekuje ljude, ubijaju na putu u Sihem, čine grdilo. 10 U domu Izrailjevom vidim strahotu; onde je kurvanje Jefremovo, Izrailj se oskvrni. 11 I tebi je, Juda, pripravljena žetva, kad vratim roblje naroda svog.

How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Besides, our Lord also exhorted them to the same effect, when He said, "But if ye had known what [this] meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the …
In the epistle entitled "To the Hebrews" it is said, "To do good and to communicate, forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased." And so, when it is written, "I desire mercy rather than sacrifice," nothing else is meant than that one sacrifice is preferred to another; for that which in common speech is called sacrifice is …

This, for example, was His complaint against certain Jews, when He said, "My mercy is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away." And His meaning is like this; "I indeed have supplied all my part, but ye, as a hot sun coming over scatters both the cloud and the dew, and makes them vanish, so …

… according to the flesh." This prophet has also foretold the resurrection of Christ on the third day, as it behoved to be foretold, with prophetic loftiness, when he says, "He will heal us after two days, and in the third day we shall rise again." In agreement with this the apostle says to us, "If ye be risen with Christ, …
