The Prophet Hosea

King James Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 3 -

(Zechariah 2:6–13)
1
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.(a)
2
So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:(b)
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:(c)
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.

(Zechariah 2:6–13)
1
The LORD said to me, “Go again, love a woman loved by another, and 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 myself for fifteen pieces of silver and a homer (a) and a half of barley.
3
I said to her, “You shall stay with me many days. You shall not play the prostitute, and you shall not be with any other man. I will also be so toward you.”
4
For the children of Israel shall live many days without king, without prince, without sacrifice, without sacred stone, and without ephod or idols.
5
Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the LORD their God, and David their king, and shall come with trembling to the LORD and to his blessings in the last days.
