Hosea 2:2-13

Plead
<07378> (8798)
with your mother
<0517>_,
plead
<07378> (8798)_:
for she [is] not my wife
<0802>_,
neither [am] I her husband
<0376>_:
let her therefore put away
<05493> (8686)
her whoredoms
<02183>
out of her sight
<06440>_,
and her adulteries
<05005>
from between her breasts
<07699>_;
Lest I strip
<06584> (8686)
her naked
<06174>_,
and set
<03322> (8689)
her as in the day
<03117>
that she was born
<03205> (8736)_,
and make
<07760> (8804)
her as a wilderness
<04057>_,
and set
<07896> (8804)
her like a dry
<06723>
land
<0776>_,
and slay
<04191> (8689)
her with thirst
<06772>_.
And I will not have mercy
<07355> (8762)
upon her children
<01121>_;
for they [be] the children
<01121>
of whoredoms
<02183>_.
For their mother
<0517>
hath played the harlot
<02181> (8804)_:
she that conceived
<02029> (8802)
them hath done shamefully
<03001> (8689)_:
for she said
<0559> (8804)_,
I will go
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
my lovers
<0157> (8764)_,
that give
<05414> (8802)
[me] my bread
<03899>
and my water
<04325>_,
my wool
<06785>
and my flax
<06593>_,
mine oil
<08081>
and my drink
<08250>_.
{drink: Heb. drinks}
Therefore, behold, I will hedge
<07753> (8801)
up thy way
<01870>
with thorns
<05518>_,
and make
<01443> (8804)
a wall
<01447>_,
that she shall not find
<04672> (8799)
her paths
<05410>_.
{make...: Heb. wall a wall}
And she shall follow
<07291> (8765)
after her lovers
<0157> (8764)_,
but she shall not overtake
<05381> (8686)
them; and she shall seek
<01245> (8765)
them, but shall not find
<04672> (8799)
[them]: then shall she say
<0559> (8804)_,
I will go
<03212> (8799)
and return
<07725> (8799)
to my first
<07223>
husband
<0376>_;
for then [was it] better
<02896>
with me than now
<06258>_.
For she did not know
<03045> (8804)
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
her corn
<01715>_,
and wine
<08492>_,
and oil
<03323>_,
and multiplied
<07235> (8689)
her silver
<03701>
and gold
<02091>_,
[which] they prepared
<06213> (8804)
for Baal
<01168>_.
{wine: Heb. new wine} {which...: or, wherewith they made Baal}
Therefore will I return
<07725> (8799)_,
and take away
<03947> (8804)
my corn
<01715>
in the time
<06256>
thereof, and my wine
<08492>
in the season
<04150>
thereof, and will recover
<05337> (8689)
my wool
<06785>
and my flax
<06593>
[given] to cover
<03680> (8763)
her nakedness
<06172>_.
{recover: or, take away}
And now will I discover
<01540> (8762)
her lewdness
<05040>
in the sight
<05869>
of her lovers
<0157> (8764)_,
and none
<0376>
shall deliver
<05337> (8686)
her out of mine hand
<03027>_.
{lewdness: Heb. folly, or, villany}
I will also cause all her mirth
<04885>
to cease
<07673> (8689)_,
her feast days
<02282>_,
her new moons
<02320>_,
and her sabbaths
<07676>_,
and all her solemn feasts
<04150>_.
And I will destroy
<08074> (8689)
her vines
<01612>
and her fig trees
<08384>_,
whereof she hath said
<0559> (8804)_,
These [are] my rewards
<0866>
that my lovers
<0157> (8764)
have given
<05414> (8804)
me: and I will make
<07760> (8804)
them a forest
<03293>_,
and the beasts
<02416>
of the field
<07704>
shall eat
<0398> (8804)
them. {destroy: Heb. make desolate}
And I will visit
<06485> (8804)
upon her the days
<03117>
of Baalim
<01168>_,
wherein she burned incense
<06999> (8686)
to them, and she decked
<05710> (8799)
herself with her earrings
<05141>
and her jewels
<02484>_,
and she went
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
her lovers
<0157> (8764)_,
and forgat
<07911> (8804)
me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
