Hosea 2:5

2:5

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}

Hosea 2:7

2:7

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>_.

Jeremiah 2:23-25

2:23

How canst thou say
<0559> (8799)_,

I am not polluted
<02930> (8738)_,

I have not gone
<01980> (8804)

after
<0310>

Baalim
<01168>_?

see
<07200> (8798)

thy way
<01870>

in the valley
<01516>_,

know
<03045> (8798)

what thou hast done
<06213> (8804)_:

[thou art] a swift
<07031>

dromedary
<01072>

traversing
<08308> (8764)

her ways
<01870>_;

{thou art...: or, O swift dromedary}

A wild ass
<06501>

used
<03928>

to the wilderness
<04057>_,

[that] snuffeth up
<07602> (8804)

the wind
<07307>

at her pleasure
<0185> <05315>_;

in her occasion
<08385>

who can turn her away
<07725> (8686)_?

all they that seek
<01245> (8764)

her will not weary
<03286> (8799)

themselves; in her month
<02320>

they shall find
<04672> (8799)

her. {A wild...: or, O wild ass, etc} {used: Heb. taught} {her pleasure: Heb. the desire of her heart} {turn...: or, reverse it?}

2:25

Withhold
<04513> (8798)

thy foot
<07272>

from being unshod
<03182>_,

and thy throat
<01627>

from thirst
<06773>_:

but thou saidst
<0559> (8799)_,

There is no hope
<02976> (8737)_:

no; for I have loved
<0157> (8804)

strangers
<02114> (8801)_,

and after
<0310>

them will I go
<03212> (8799)_.

{There...: or, Is the case desperate?}
