Ho:3:1: Then said the LORD unto me, Go yet, love a woman
beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD
toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of
wine.
Ho:3:2: So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer
of barley, and an half homer of barley:
Ho:3:3: And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt
not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also
be for thee.
Ho:3:4: For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and
without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without
an ephod, and without teraphim:
Ho:3:5: Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD
their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in
the latter days.
