Hosea 2:7-9
New International Version - UK
7 She will chase after her lovers but not catch them;
she will look for them but not find them.
Then she will say,
“I will go back to my husband as at first,
for then I was better off than now.”
8 She has not acknowledged that I was the one
who gave her the grain, the new wine and oil,
who lavished on her the silver and gold –
which they used for Baal.
9 ‘Therefore I will take away my corn when it ripens,
and my new wine when it is ready.
I will take back my wool and my linen,
intended to cover her naked body.
