“Contend with your mother, (A)contend,
For she is (B)not my wife, and I am not her husband;
And let her remove her (C)harlotry from her face
And her adultery from between her breasts,
Lest I strip her (D)naked
And set her forth as on the (E)day when she was born
And (F)make her like a wilderness
And [a]make her like dry land
And put her to death with (G)thirst.
Also, I will have no compassion on her children
Because they are (H)children of harlotry.
For their mother has (I)played the harlot;
She who conceived them has acted shamefully.
For she said, ‘(J)I will go after my lovers,
Who (K)give me my bread and my water,
My wool and my flax, my (L)oil and my drink.’

  1. Hosea 2:3 Lit set

Gomer is Rebuked

“Call your mother to account, call her—
    for she is not my wife,
        and I’m not her husband.
Let her do away with her seductive looks
    and remove her adultery from between her breasts.
Otherwise, I’ll strip her naked—
    as she was on the day she was born—
make her like a wilderness,
    turn her into a parched land,
        and cause her to die of thirst.
Furthermore, I’ll not show pity on her children,
    since they are children of prostitution.
Indeed, their mother has committed prostitution—
    the one who has been conceiving them has acted disgracefully—
when she said,
    ‘I’m going after my lovers,
        who provide me food and water,
    as well as my wool, my flax,
        my oil, and my wine.’
