2 “People of Israel, call your brothers ‘My people.’ And call your sisters ‘My loved ones.’

Israel Is Punished and Brought Back to the Lord

    Tell her she is wrong.
She isn’t acting like a wife to me anymore.
    She no longer treats me as her husband.
Tell her to stop looking and acting like a prostitute.
    Tell her not to let her lovers
    lie on her breasts anymore.
