Hosea 2:8-13



8
“Now she does anot know that it was bI who gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil,
And multiplied silver and gold for her,
Which they 1used for Baal.

9
Therefore, I will atake back My grain at 1harvest time
And My new wine in its season.
I will also deliver My wool and My flax from them
Given to cover her nakedness.

10
So now I will auncover her lewdness
In the sight of her lovers,
And no one will deliver her out of My hand.

11
I will also acease all her joy,
Her bfeasts, her cnew moons, her sabbaths,
And all her appointed times.

12
And I will amake desolate her vines and fig trees,
Of which she said, ‘These are my wages
Which my lovers have given me.’
And I will bmake them a forest,
And the cbeasts of the field will devour them.

13
So I will visit the adays of the Baals upon her
When she used to 1boffer offerings in smoke to them
And cadorn herself with her 2earrings and jewelry
And go after her lovers, so that she dforgot Me,” declares Yahweh.
