⁶ “Look how I’m blocking her^[a] path with thorns
    and building a wall to hinder^[b] her,
        so she can’t find her way.
⁷ She will pursue 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’ll go back and return to my first husband,
        because it was better for me then than now.’
