Hosea 2:12-14
Legacy Standard Bible
12 And I will (A)make desolate her vines and fig trees,
Of which she said, ‘These are my wages
Which my lovers have given me.’
And I will (B)make them a forest,
And the (C)beasts of the field will devour them.
13 So I will visit the (D)days of the Baals upon her
When she used to [a](E)offer offerings in smoke to them
And (F)adorn herself with her [b]earrings and jewelry
And go after her lovers, so that she (G)forgot Me,” declares Yahweh.
Yahweh’s Faithful Betrothal
14 “Therefore, behold, I will allure her
(H)And bring her into the wilderness
And speak to her heart.
