Hosea 2:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 And I will have no pity upon her children: for they be the [a]children of fornication.
5 For their mother hath played the harlot: she that conceived them, hath done shamefully: for she said, I will go after thy [b]lovers that give me my bread and my water, my wool, and my flax, mine oil and my drink.
6 Therefore behold, I will stoop [c]thy way with thorns, and make an hedge, that she shall not find her paths.
