Hosea 3:1-3

Jubilee Bible 2000

3 ¶ Then the LORD said unto me again, Go, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the sons of Israel, who look to other gods and love flagons of wine.

² So I bought her for myself for fifteen pieces of silver and an homer and a half of barley:

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.
