Hosea
Chapter Three
1 ¶ Then the LORD
said to me, "Go again, love a woman who is loved by a lover and is committing
adultery, just like the love of the LORD for the children of Israel, who look
to other gods and love the raisin cakes of the pagans."
2 So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver, and one and one-half
homers of barley.
3 And I said to her, "You shall stay with me many days; you shall not play
the harlot, nor shall you have a man-so, too, will I be toward you."
4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without
sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim.
5 Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the LORD their God
and David their king. They shall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter
days.
