Hosea 2:4-6
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 Upon her children also I will have no pity,
because they are children of prostitution.(A)
5 For their mother has prostituted herself;
she who conceived them has acted shamefully.
For she said, “I will go after my lovers;
they give me my bread and my water,
my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.”(B)
6 Therefore I will hedge up her[a] way with thorns,
and I will build a wall against her
so that she cannot find her paths.(C)
