Hosea 3:2-4

2So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver1 and a homer and a lethech of barley.2 3Then I said to her, “You must live with me for many days; you must not be promiscuous or belong to another, and I will do the same for you.”

4For the Israelites must live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, and without ephod or idol.
