Their doings will not allow them to turn to their God; for the spirit of fornication is in their midst, and they have not known Jehovah.

Come and let us return to Jehovah. For He has torn, and He will heal us; He has stricken, and He will bind us up.

Therefore turn to your God; keep mercy and judgment, and wait on your God forever.

Ephraim provoked Me to anger most bitterly; therefore he shall leave his blood on him, and his Lord shall turn his reproach to him.

Take with you words, and turn to Jehovah. Say to Him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously, that we may repay with the calves of our lips.
