Hosea 2:8-10
Easy-to-Read Version

8 “Israel didn’t know that I, the Lord, was the one who gave her grain, wine, and oil. I kept giving her more and more silver and gold, but she used this silver and gold to make statues of Baal. 9 So I will return and take back my grain at the time it is ready to be harvested. I will take back my wine at the time the grapes are ready. I will take back my wool and linen. I gave those things to her so that she could cover her naked body. 10 Now I will strip her. She will be naked, so all her lovers can see her. No one will be able to save her from my power.[a]

    and my new wine(F) when it is ready.
I will take back my wool and my linen,

    before the eyes of her lovers;(H)
    no one will take her out of my hands.(I)
