Hosea 2:5-7
New Century Version
Hosea 2:5-7
New Century Version
5 Their mother has acted like a prostitute;
the one who became pregnant with them has acted disgracefully.
She said, ‘I will chase after my lovers,[a]
who give me my food and water,
wool and flax, wine and olive oil.’
6 So I will block her road with thornbushes;
I will build a wall around her
so she cannot find her way.
7 She will run after her lovers,
but she won’t catch them.
She will look for them,
but she won’t find them.
Then she will say, ‘I will go back to my first husband,[b]
because life was better then for me than it is now.’
