Hosea 2:2-4
Easy-to-Read Version
2 “Argue with your mother.[a] Argue with her because she is no longer my wife, and I am no longer her husband! Tell her to stop being like a prostitute. Tell her to take away her lovers[b] from between her breasts. 3 If she refuses to stop her adultery, I will strip her naked and leave her like the day she was born. I will take away her people, and she will be like an empty, dry desert. I will kill her with thirst. 4 I will have no pity on her children because they are the children of prostitution.

New International Version
Israel Punished and Restored
2 “Rebuke your mother,(A) rebuke her,
for she is not my wife,
and I am not her husband.
Let her remove the adulterous(B) look from her face
and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.
3 Otherwise I will strip(C) her naked
and make her as bare as on the day she was born;(D)
I will make her like a desert,(E)
turn her into a parched land,
and slay her with thirst.
4 I will not show my love to her children,(F)
because they are the children of adultery.(G)
