Hosea 2:6-7
New International Version
6 Therefore I will block her path with thornbushes;
I will wall her in so that she cannot find her way.(A)
7 She will chase after her lovers but not catch them;
she will look for them but not find them.(B)
Then she will say,
‘I will go back to my husband(C) as at first,(D)
for then I was better off(E) than now.’

Common English Bible
Divine correction
6 Therefore, I will line her path with thorns;
and I will build a wall against her,
so that she can’t find her paths.
7 She will go after her lovers,
but she won’t catch up with them;
she will seek them,
but she won’t find them.
Then she will say,
“I will return to my first husband,
for I had it better then than now.”
