Hosea 2:7-8

7And she shall followH7291 after her loversH157, but she shall not overtakeH5381 them; and she shall seekH1245 them, but shall not findH4672 them: then shall she sayH559, I will goH3212 and returnH7725 to my firstH7223 husbandH376; for then was it betterH2896 with me than nowH6258.

8For she did not knowH3045 that I gaveH5414 her grainH1715, and wineH8492, and oilH3323, and multipliedH7235 her silverH3701 and goldH2091, which they preparedH6213 for BaalH1168.1 2
