“I remember concerning you the [a](B)devotion of your youth,
The love of your betrothals,
(C)Your following after Me in the wilderness,
Through a land not sown.
“Israel was (D)holy to the Lord,
The (E)first of His harvest.
(F)All who ate of it became guilty;
Evil came upon them,” declares the Lord.’”
