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 (3:1)

So I bought her to me for fifteen [pieces] of silver, and [for] an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley: (3:2)

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 (3:3)

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: (3:4)

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 (3:5)
