Hosea 2:6-7
Modern English Version
6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns,
and make a wall, so that she will not find her paths.
7 She will pursue her lovers, but she will not reach them;
and she will seek them but will not find them.
Then she will say,
“I will go and return to my first husband,
for it was better for me then than now.”
Hosea 2:6-7
New King James Version
6 “Therefore, behold,
(A)I will hedge up your way with thorns,
And [a]wall her in,
So that she cannot find her paths.
7 She will [b]chase her lovers,
But not overtake them;
Yes, she will seek them, but not find them.
Then she will say,
(B)‘I will go and return to my (C)first husband,
For then it was better for me than now.’
