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, w look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.

So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an mer of barley, and an half mer of barley:

And I said unto her, Tu shalt abide for me many days; tu shalt not play the harlot, and tu shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.

For the children of Israel shall abide many days witut a king, and witut a prince, and witut a sacrifice, and witut an image, and witut an epd, and witut teraphim:

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.
