Hosea 3

MKJV(i) 1 And Jehovah said to me, Go again. Love a woman beloved by a friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of Jehovah toward the sons of Israel, who turn to other gods, and love raisin-cakes of grapes. 2 So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for a homer of barley and a half homer of barley. 3 And I said to her, You shall abide for me many days. You shall not be a harlot, nor be for a man. And I also will be for you. 4 For the sons of Israel shall live many days with no king, and no ruler, and with no sacrifice, and no pillars, and no ephod, or teraphim. 5 Afterward the sons of Israel shall return and seek Jehovah their God and David their king. And they shall fear Jehovah and His goodness in the ends of the days.
