And they shall return to the bpay of a harlot.”

Mourning for Israel and Judah
8 Therefore I will wail and howl,
I will go stripped and naked;

And a mourning like the ostriches,
I will go stripped and naked;

And a mourning like the ostriches,
9 For her wounds are incurable.

For the transgressions of Israel were bfound in you.
