Israel’s Adultery Rebuked
2 [ “] Say of your brothers, ‘My people,’[fn] and of your sisters, ‘My loved one.’[fn]
2 Rebuke your mother, rebuke her, for she is not My wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove the adultery from her face and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.
3 Otherwise, I will strip her naked and expose her like the day of her birth. I will make her like a desert and turn her into a parched land, and I will let her die of thirst.
4 I will have no compassion on her children, because they are the children of adultery.
5 For their mother has played the harlot and has conceived them in disgrace. For she thought, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me bread and water, wool and linen, oil and drink.’
6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her path[fn] with thorns; I will enclose her with a wall so she cannot find her way.
7 She will pursue her lovers but not catch them; she will seek them but not find them. Then she will say, ‘I will return to my first husband, for then I was better off than now.’
8 For she does not acknowledge that it was I who gave her grain, new wine, and oil, who lavished on her silver and gold—which they crafted for Baal.
9 Therefore I will take back My grain in its time and My new wine in its season; I will take away My wool and linen, which were [given] to cover her nakedness.
10 And then I will expose her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and no one will deliver her out of My hands.
11 I will put an end to all her exultation: her feasts, New Moons, and Sabbaths—all her appointed feasts.
12 I will destroy her vines and fig trees, which she thinks are the wages paid by her lovers. So I will make them into a thicket, and the beasts of the field will devour them.
13 I will punish her for the days of the Baals when she burned incense to them, when she adorned herself with rings and jewelry, and went after her lovers. But Me she forgot,” declares the LORD.
