3:1 And Yehovah said to me, Go yet, and
love a woman that loves evil things, an adulteress, even as Yehovah loves
the children of Israel, and they have respect to strange gods, and love
cakes of dried grapes.
3:2 So I hired [her] to myself for fifteen [pieces] of silver, and a homer
of barley, and a flagon of wine.
3:3 And I said unto her, Thou shalt wait for me many days; and thou shalt
not commit fornication, neither shalt thou be for [another] man; and I [will
be] for thee.
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 altar, and without
a priesthood, and without manifestations.
3:5 And afterward shall the children of Israel return, and shall seek Yehovah their Elohim, and David their king; and shall be amazed at Yehovah and at
his goodness in the latter days. |
3:1 Then said Yehovah unto me, Go yet, love
a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of
Yehovah toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love
flagons of wine.
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:
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.
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:
3:5 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek Yehovah their
Elohim, and David their king; and shall fear Yehovah and his goodness in the
latter days. |
