Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
 

10:12 reap in mercy. Compare Hosea 8:7. Sowing the wind is about to reap a whirlwind of judgment in Israel, whereas sowing in righteousness would have reaped mercy. This is apparently a last call to repent and seek the Lord before final judgment.
