Hosea 2:3-5
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
3 Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born: and I will make her as a wilderness, and will set her as a land that none can pass through, and will kill her with drought.
4 And I will not have mercy on her children: for they are the children of fornications.
5 For their mother hath committed fornication, she that conceived them is covered with shame: for she said: I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread, and my water, my wool, and my flax, my oil, and my drink.

Hosea 2:3-5
New International Version
3 Otherwise I will strip(A) her naked
and make her as bare as on the day she was born;(B)
I will make her like a desert,(C)
turn her into a parched land,
and slay her with thirst.
4 I will not show my love to her children,(D)
because they are the children of adultery.(E)
5 Their mother has been unfaithful
and has conceived them in disgrace.
She said, ‘I will go after my lovers,(F)
who give me my food and my water,
my wool and my linen, my olive oil and my drink.’(G)
