Hosea 2:2-4
Legacy Standard Bible
2 “Contend with your mother, (A)contend,
For she is (B)not my wife, and I am not her husband;
And let her remove her (C)harlotry from her face
And her adultery from between her breasts,
3 Lest I strip her (D)naked
And set her forth as on the (E)day when she was born
And (F)make her like a wilderness
And [a]make her like dry land
And put her to death with (G)thirst.
4 Also, I will have no compassion on her children
Because they are (H)children of harlotry.

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.

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)
