Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my new wine in its season, and will withdraw my wool and my flax which should have covered her nakedness.

And I will make desolate her vine and her fig-tree, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards which my lovers have given me; and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them.

\w And|strong="H3027"\w* \w I|strong="H6258"\w* \w will|strong="H0376"\w* \w make|strong="H1540"\w* desolate \w her|strong="H1540"\w* vine \w and|strong="H3027"\w* \w her|strong="H1540"\w* fig-tree, whereof \w she|strong="H3808"\w* hath said, These \w are|strong="H0376"\w* \w my|strong="H5337"\w* rewards \w which|strong="H5869"\w* \w my|strong="H5337"\w* \w lovers|strong="H0157"\w* \w have|strong="H5869"\w* \w given|strong="H3027"\w* \w me|strong="H3808"\w*; \w and|strong="H3027"\w* \w I|strong="H6258"\w* \w will|strong="H0376"\w* \w make|strong="H1540"\w* \w them|strong="H0853"\w* \w a|strong="H3808"\w* forest, \w and|strong="H3027"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* beasts \w of|strong="H0376"\w* \w the|strong="H0853"\w* field \w shall|strong="H0376"\w* eat \w them|strong="H0853"\w*. 

And I will visit upon her the days of the Baals, wherein she burned incense to them, and decked herself with her rings and jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, saith Jehovah.
