Hosea 2:5-7
Hosea 2:5-7 TPT
Yes, their mother has prostituted herself, the one who conceived them has disgraced herself. For she said, ‘I will chase after my lovers; they will provide all I need: my robe, my clothing, my oil, and my wine.’ Behold! I will block her way with thorns and build up a wall against her to stop her in her tracks. Then when she tries to chase her lovers, she will not be able to catch them. When she looks for them, she will not find them. Eventually, she’ll say, ‘I must go back to my own husband. I was much better off then than I am now!’
