Bible: Hosea 5:15; 6:1-3

5:15 Then I will return again to my lair

until they have suffered their punishment. 1 

Then they will seek me; 2 

in their distress they will earnestly seek me.

God’s Grief over Humankind’s Wickedness

6:1 When humankind 1  began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born 2  to them, 3  6:2 the sons of God 4  saw that the daughters of humankind were beautiful. Thus they took wives for themselves from any they chose. 6:3 So the Lord said, “My spirit will not remain in 5  humankind indefinitely, 6  since 7  they 8  are mortal. 9  They 10  will remain for 120 more years.” 11
