King James Bible
And the contrary is in thee from other women in thy whoredoms, whereas none followeth thee to commit whoredoms: and in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given unto thee, therefore thou art contrary.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
So you were the opposite of other women in your acts of prostitution; no one solicited you. When you paid a fee instead of one being paid to you, you were the opposite."

International Standard Version
You're different from other women when you commit immorality—no one can match you in that! After all, you pay fees, but no fee is given to you. You're certainly different!"

NET Bible
You were different from other prostitutes because no one solicited you. When you gave payment and no payment was given to you, you became the opposite!

GOD'S WORD® Translation
You are a different kind of prostitute. No one goes after you for favors. You are the opposite. You pay them, and you don't accept payment.

King James 2000 Bible
And you are different from other women in your harlotries, therefore none follows you to commit harlotries: and in that you give a reward, and no reward is given unto you, therefore you are different.
