Hosea 2:12
Contemporary English Version
12 She said, “My lovers gave me
vineyards and fig trees
as payment[a] for sex.”
Now I, the Lord, will ruin
her vineyards and fig trees;
they will become clumps of weeds
eaten by wild animals.
Footnotes
- 2.12 fig trees … payment: Hosea uses an unusual word for “fig tree,” which is spelled something like the word for “payment.”
