2 Raja-raja 3:10

3:10 The king of Israel said, “Oh no! ¹  Certainly the Lord has summoned these three kings so that he can hand them over to the king of Moab!”

Ulangan 32:37-39

32:37 He will say, “Where are their gods,

the rock in whom they sought security,

32:38 who ate the best of their sacrifices,

and drank the wine of their drink offerings?

Let them rise and help you;

let them be your refuge!

The Vindication of the Lord

32:39 “See now that I, indeed I, am he!” says the Lord, ² 

“and there is no other god besides me.

I kill and give life,

I smash and I heal,

and none can resist ³  my power.

Hosea 6:1

Superficial Repentance Breeds False Assurance of God’s Forgiveness

6:1 “Come on! Let’s return to the Lord!

He himself has torn us to pieces,

but he will heal us!

He has injured ⁴  us,

but he will bandage our wounds!

[3:10]  ¹ tn Or “ah.”

[32:39]  ² tn Verses 39-42 appear to be a quotation of the Lord and so the introductory phrase “says the Lord” is supplied in the translation for clarity.

[32:39]  ³ tn Heb “deliver from” (so NRSV, NLT).

[6:1]  ⁴ tn “has struck”; NRSV “struck down.”
