Hosea 2:6-7

The Voice

⁶     But I’ll block her way with a thorn hedge;
        I’ll put a wall up around her, blocking her usual paths,
⁷         and she will wander after her lovers like a dumb sheep.
    She’ll chase after them, but she won’t catch them.
        She’ll look for them, but she won’t find them.
    Then she’ll say, “I’m going to go back to my original husband
        because I was better off then than I am now!”
