Hosea 2:1-5

11SayH559 to your brothersH251, “2AmmiH5971,” and to your sistersH269, “3RuhamahH7355.”2“ContendH7378 with your motherH517, 4contendH7378, For she is 5not my wifeH802, and I am not her husbandH376; And let her putH5493 awayH5493 her 6harlotryH2183 from her faceH6440 And her adulteryH5005 from betweenH996 her breastsH7699,3OrH6435 I will stripH6584 her 7nakedH6174 And exposeH3322 her as on the 8dayH3117 when she was bornH3205. I will also 9makeH7760 her like a wildernessH4057, MakeH7896 her like desertH6723 landH776 And slayH4191 her with 10thirstH6772.4Also, I will haveH7355 noH3808 compassionH7355 on her childrenH1121, BecauseH3588 they are 11childrenH1121 of harlotryH2183.5For their motherH517 has 12playedH2181 the harlotH2181; She who conceivedH2029 them has actedH954 shamefullyH954. For she saidH559, ‘13I will goH1980 afterH310 my loversH157, Who 14giveH5414 me my breadH3899 and my waterH4325, My woolH6785 and my flaxH6593, my 15oilH8081 and my drinkH8250.’
