Hosea haalt Gomer weer terug
3 De Heer zei tegen mij: "Laat deze vrouw zien dat je van haar houdt, ook al is ze ontrouw aan jou en gaat ze met andere mannen naar bed. Net zo houd Ik van de Israëlieten, ook al zijn ze ontrouw aan Mij. Want ze aanbidden andere goden en drinken graag wijn."
2 Toen kocht ik haar vrij[a] voor 15 zilverstukken en 1½ homer (330 liter) gerst. 3 En ik zei tegen haar: "Je zal een lange tijd op mij moeten wachten. Je mag met niemand naar bed gaan. Ook ik zal niet met je naar bed gaan."
4 De Heer zei: "Zij zal lange tijd zonder mannen zijn. Net zó zullen de Israëlieten heel lang zonder koning, zonder heerser, zonder offers, zonder heiligdom, zonder borsttas met beslissingsstenen[b] en zonder uitlegger van de wet zijn. 5 Daarna zullen de Israëlieten weer bij Mij terugkomen. Ze zullen weer naar Mij verlangen, en naar een koning uit de familie van David. Aan het eind van de tijd zullen ze vol ontzag bij Mij terugkomen, want Ik ben goed voor hen."

- Hosea 3:2 Er zijn aanwijzingen dat Gomer een tempelhoer was in een afgodstempel. Hosea kreeg hier de opdracht haar daar vrij te kopen.
- Hosea 3:4 De borsttas hoorde bij de kleding van de hogepriester. Met behulp van de twee stenen die daarin zaten, vroeg de hogepriester God om raad. Hoe er precies mee gewerkt werd, is niet bekend. De tas wordt beschreven in Exodus 28:15-29. Lees Leviticus 8:8 en Exodus 28:30.

Israel Will Return to God
3 Then the Lord said to me, “Go again, love a woman who is loved by a (A)lover[a] and is committing adultery, just like the love of the Lord for the children of Israel, who look to other gods and love the raisin cakes of the pagans.”
2 So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver, and one and one-half homers of barley. 3 And I said to her, “You shall (B)stay with me many days; you shall not play the harlot, nor shall you have a man—so, too, will I be toward you.”
4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days (C)without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without (D)ephod or (E)teraphim. 5 Afterward the children of Israel shall return and (F)seek the Lord their God and (G)David their king. They shall fear the Lord and His goodness in the (H)latter days.

King James Version
3 Then said the Lord unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the Lord toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.
2 So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:
3 And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.
4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:
5 Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the Lord their God, and David their king; and shall fear the Lord and his goodness in the latter days.

Hosea’s Reconciliation With His Wife
3 The Lord said to me, “Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another man and is an adulteress.(A) Love her as the Lord loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.(B)”
2 So I bought her for fifteen shekels[a] of silver and about a homer and a lethek[b] of barley. 3 Then I told her, “You are to live with me many days; you must not be a prostitute or be intimate with any man, and I will behave the same way toward you.”
4 For the Israelites will live many days without king or prince,(C) without sacrifice(D) or sacred stones,(E) without ephod(F) or household gods.(G) 5 Afterward the Israelites will return and seek(H) the Lord their God and David their king.(I) They will come trembling(J) to the Lord and to his blessings in the last days.(K)

Hosea Redeems His Wife
3 And the Lord said to me, (A)“Go again, love a woman who is loved by another man and is an adulteress, even as the Lord loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods and love cakes of raisins.” 2 So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a (B)homer and a lethech[a] of barley. 3 And I said to her, “You must (C)dwell as mine for many days. You shall not play the whore, or belong to another man; so will I also be to you.” 4 For the children of Israel (D)shall dwell many days (E)without king or prince, (F)without sacrifice or (G)pillar, without (H)ephod or (I)household gods. 5 Afterward (J)the children of Israel shall return and (K)seek the Lord their God, and (L)David their king, (M)and they shall come in fear to the Lord and to his goodness in the (N)latter days.
