Hosea 3:2-4

New Living Translation

² So I bought her back for fifteen pieces of silver^[a] and five bushels of barley and a measure of wine.^{[b] 3} Then I said to her, “You must live in my house for many days and stop your prostitution. During this time, you will not have sexual relations with anyone, not even with me.^[c]”

⁴ This shows that Israel will go a long time without a king or prince, and without sacrifices, sacred pillars, priests,^[d] or even idols!
