| 1 | And Jehovah saith unto me: 'Again, go, love a woman, loved of a friend, and an adulteress, like the loved of Jehovah, the sons of Israel, and they are turning unto other gods, and are lovers of grape-cakes.' | And the LORD said to me, “Go again, love a woman who is loved by another man and is an adulteress, even as the LORD loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods and love cakes of raisins.” | The LORD said to me, “Go, show your love to your wife again, though she is loved by another man and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and love the sacred raisin cakes.” | |
| 2 | And I buy her to me for fifteen silverlings, and a homer and a letech of barley; | So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a lethech of barley. | So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and about a homer and a lethek of barley. | |
| 3 | and I say unto her, 'Many days thou dost remain for Me, thou dost not go a-whoring, nor become any one's; and I also am for thee.' | And I said to her, “You must dwell as mine for many days. You shall not play the whore, or belong to another man; so will I also be to you.” | Then I told her, “You are to live with me many days; you must not be a prostitute or be intimate with any man, and I will behave the same way toward you.” | |
| 4 | For many days remain do the sons of Israel without a king, and there is no prince, and there is no sacrifice, and there is no standing pillar, and there is no ephod and teraphim. | For the children of Israel shall dwell many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or pillar, without ephod or household gods. | For the Israelites will live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred stones, without ephod or household gods. | |
| 5 | Afterwards turned back have the sons of Israel, and sought Jehovah their God, and David their king, and have hastened unto Jehovah, and unto His goodness, in the latter end of the days. | Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the LORD their God, and David their king, and they shall come in fear to the LORD and to his goodness in the latter days. | Afterward the Israelites will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will come trembling to the LORD and to his blessings in the last days. | |
