2"Say of your brothers, 'My people,' and of your sisters, 'My loved one.'
2"Rebuke 1 your mother, rebuke her, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove the adulterous look from her face and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.
3Otherwise I will strip her naked and make her as bare as on the day she was born; I will make her like a desert, turn her into a parched 2 land, and slay 3 her with thirst.
4I will not show my love to her children, because they are the children of adultery.
5Their mother has been unfaithful and has conceived them in disgrace. She said, 'I will go after my lovers, who give me my food and my water, my wool and my linen 4, my oil and my drink.'
6Therefore I will block her path with thornbushes; I will wall her in so that she cannot find her way.
7She will chase after her lovers but not catch them; she will look for them but not find them. Then she will say, 'I will go back to my husband as at first, for then I was better off than now.'
8She has not acknowledged that I was the one who gave her the grain, the new wine and oil, who lavished 5 on her the silver and gold- which they used for Baal.
9"Therefore I will take away my grain when it ripens 6, and my new wine when it is ready. I will take back my wool and my linen, intended to cover her nakedness.
10So now I will expose her lewdness 7 before the eyes of her lovers; no one will take her out of my hands.
11I will stop all her celebrations: her yearly festivals, her New Moons, her Sabbath days-all her appointed feasts.
12I will ruin her vines and her fig 8 trees, which she said were her pay from her lovers; I will make them a thicket 9, and wild animals will devour 10 them.
13I will punish her for the days she burned incense 11 to the Baals; she decked herself with rings and jewelry 12, and went after her lovers, but me she forgot," declares the Lord .
14"Therefore I am now going to allure 13 her; I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her.
15There I will give her back her vineyards, and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. There she will sing as in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt.
16"In that day," declares the Lord , "you will call me 'my husband'; you will no longer call me 'my master. '
17I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips; no longer will their names be invoked 14.
18In that day I will make a covenant 15 for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that move along the ground. Bow and sword and battle I will abolish from the land, so that all may lie down in safety.
19I will betroth 16 you to me forever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in love and compassion 17.
20I will betroth you in faithfulness, and you will acknowledge the Lord .
21"In that day I will respond," declares the Lord - "I will respond to the skies, and they will respond to the earth;
22and the earth will respond to the grain, the new wine and oil, and they will respond to Jezreel.
23I will plant her for myself in the land; I will show my love to the one I called 'Not my loved one. ' I will say to those called 'Not my people, ' 'You are my people'; and they will say, 'You are my God.' "
