Hosea 2:12-14

Living Bible

¹² I will destroy her vineyards and her orchards—gifts she claims her lovers gave her—and let them grow into a jungle; wild animals will eat their fruit.

¹³ “For all the incense she burned to Baal her idol and for the times when she put on her earrings and jewels and went out looking for her lovers and deserted me—for all these things I will punish her,” says the Lord.

¹⁴ “But I will court her again and bring her into the wilderness, and I will speak to her tenderly there.
