Hosea 2:6-8
6ThereforeH3651, beholdH2009, I will 1hedgeH7753 up 2her wayH1870 with 3thornsH5518, And I will buildH1443 4a wallH1447 against her so that she cannotH3808 findH4672 her 5pathsH5410.7She will 6pursueH7291 her loversH157, but she will not overtakeH5381 them; And she will seekH1245 them, but will not findH4672 them. Then she will sayH559, ‘7I will goH1980 backH7725 to my 8firstH7223 husbandH376, For it was 9betterH2896 for me thenH227 thanH4480 nowH6258!’
8“For she does 10not knowH3045 that it was 11I who gaveH5414 her the grainH1715, the newH8492 wineH8492 and the oilH3323, And lavishedH7235 on her silverH3701 and goldH2091, Which they 12usedH6213 for BaalH1168.
