For then it was better for me than now.’

That I gave her grain, new wine, and oil,
And multiplied her silver and gold—
Which they prepared for Baal.

My grain in its time
And My new wine in its season,
And will take back My wool and My linen,
Given to cover her nakedness.

And no one shall deliver her from My hand.
And no one shall deliver her from My hand.
