Hosea 3:1

Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the LORD.

Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.

Nevertheless for thy great mercies’ sake thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for thou art a gracious and merciful God.

And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed every one to his house.

And the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.

That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.

Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.

Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
