HOSHĔA 3

1 Then 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 said to me, \"Go again, love a woman loved by a friend, and an adulteress, according to the love of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 for the children of Yisra’ĕl, though they are turning to other mighty ones and love their raisin cakes.\" 2 So I bought her for myself for fifteen pieces of silver, and a letheḵ of barley. 3 And I said to her, \"You are to remain with me many days, you are not to whore, nor become any man's, and so I shall also be towards you.\" 4 For many days the children of Yisra’ĕl are to remain without sovereign and without prince, and without slaughtering, and without pillar, and without shoulder garment or house idols. 5 Afterward the children of Yisra’ĕl shall return, and seek 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 their Elohim, and Dawiḏ their sovereign, and revere 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 and His goodness, in the latter days.
