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.’
Hosea 2:6-7
Lexham English Bible
6 Therefore, Look!
I am going to hedge her path[a] with thorns,[b]
and I will build a stone wall, a stone wall against her,
and she will not find her paths.
7 Then she will pursue her lovers,[c]
but she will not overtake them;
she will seek them and not find them;
and she will say, “I will go
and return to my first husband
because it was better for me then than now.”
