Verse 2 is found in chapter 14 of Hosea. The book concludes by calling Israel to return to the Lord and bring words of repentance instead of relying on empty sacrifices. The people must acknowledge their sin and abandon their trust in Assyria, horses, and the works of their own hands. The confession identifies three false securities: foreign power, military strength, and idolatry. Return begins with an honest confession and a renunciation of these substitutes.
