Hosea 2:12-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees,
of which she said,
“These are my pay,
which my lovers have given me.”
I will make them a forest,
and the wild animals shall devour them.(A)
13 I will punish her for the festival days of the Baals,
to whom she offered incense
and decked herself with her rings and jewelry
and went after her lovers
and forgot me, says the Lord.(B)
14 Therefore, I will now allure her
and bring her into the wilderness
and speak tenderly to her.(C)
