A Call for Israel to Repent

“Come, let us return to the Lord;
    even though he has torn us,[a]
        he will heal us.
Even though he has wounded us,
    he will bind our wounds.[b]
After two days, he will restore us to life,
    on the third day he will raise us up,
        and we will live in his presence.
Let us know,
    let us pursue knowledge of the Lord;
        his coming is as certain as the dawn.
He will come to us like the rain,
    like the autumn and spring rains come on the earth.
