so is the one who boasts of a gift not given.

Hosea 6:4

Transitory Faithfulness and Imminent Judgment

What am I going to do with you, O Judah?

For your faithfulness is as fleeting as the morning mist;

it disappears as quickly as dawn’s dew!

Hosea 6:2

6:2 He will restore us in a very short time;

he will heal us in a little while,

so that we may live in his presence.

Hosea 2:17

2:17 For I will remove the names of the Baal idols from your lips,

so that you will never again utter their names!”
