Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

LEB • “Go, love a woman • [fn] and is committing adultery, • just like the love of Yahweh for the children of Israel, • but they are turning to other gods • and love raisin cakes.”
3:? Literally “who is beloved of a friend”
KJB-1611 1 By the expiation of an adulteresse, 4 is shewed the desolation of Israel before their restauration.
(1 By the expiation of an adulteresse, 4 is showed the desolation of Israel before their restauration.)
This chapter focuses on the meaning of the illustration of Hosea’s marriage. It is a very short chapter written in prose to show the truth of Israel’s relationship with Yahweh. After bearing a number of children for Hosea, Gomer leaves him and prostitutes herself with other men, showing little to no regard for their marriage covenant. (See: covenant)
This chapter contains a continuation of the metaphor played out in chapter 2. Hosea is told to go and buy his wife out of slavery. Gomer must have been captured and held as a slave due to her adulterous activity. (See: figs-metaphor and adultery)
