Hosea 2:6-7
Legacy Standard Bible
6 Therefore, behold, I will (A)hedge up [a]her way with (B)thorns,
And I will build [b]a wall against her so that she cannot find her (C)paths.
7 So she will (D)pursue her lovers, but she will not overtake them;
And she will seek them, but will not find them.
Then she will say, ‘(E)I will go, and I will return to my (F)first husband,
For it was (G)better for me then than now!’

6 Therefore I will hedge up her[a] way with thorns;
and I will build a wall against her,
so that she cannot find her paths.

but shall not find them.
Then she shall say, ‘I will go
and return to my first husband,
for it was better with me then than now.’
