Hosea 2:2
Compare all
1 Say to your brethren,1 ‘My people,’
And to your sisters,1 ‘Mercy is shown.’ 

God’s Unfaithful People

2 “Bring1 charges against your mother,2 bring charges;
For ashe is not My wife, nor am I her Husband!
Let her put away her bharlotries from her sight,
And her adulteries from between her breasts; 
3 Lest aI strip her naked
And expose her, as in the day she was bborn,
And make her like a wilderness,
And set her like a dry land,
And slay her with cthirst. 
4 “I will not have mercy on her children,
For they are the achildren of harlotry. 
5 For their mother has played the harlot;
She who conceived them has behaved shamefully.
For she said, ‘I will go after my lovers,
aWho give me my bread and my water,
My wool and my linen,
My oil and my drink.’ 
6 “Therefore, behold,
aI will hedge up your way with thorns,
And1 wall her in,
So that she cannot find her paths. 
7 She will1 chase her lovers,
But not overtake them;
Yes, she will seek them, but not find them.
Then she will say,
a‘I will go and return to my bfirst husband,
For then it was better for me than now.’
