Hosea 2:5-8

Hosea 2:5-8

[5] For their mother  hath played the harlot:  she that conceived  them hath done shamefully:  for she said,  after  my lovers,  that give  me my bread  and my water,  my wool  and my flax,  mine oil  and my drink.  [6] Therefore, behold, I will hedge  up thy way  with thorns,  and make  that she shall not find  her paths.  [7] And she shall follow  after her lovers,  but she shall not overtake  them; and she shall seek  them, but shall not find  them: then shall she say,  and return  to my first  husband;  for then was it better  with me than now.  [8] For she did not know  that I gave  her corn,  and wine,  and oil,  and multiplied  her silver  and gold,  which they prepared  for Baal.
