1. Say you to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.
1. Say H559 ye unto your brethren H251 , Ammi H5971 ; and to your sisters H269 , Ruhamah H7355 .
2. Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: let her therefore put away her prostitutions out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
2. Plead H7378 with your mother H517 , plead H7378 : for H3588 she H1931 is not H3808 my wife H802 , neither H3808 am I H595 her husband H376 : let her therefore put away H5493 her whoredoms H2183 out of her sight H4480 H6440 , and her adulteries H5005 from between H4480 H996 her breasts H7699 ;
3. Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst.
3. Lest H6435 I strip H6584 her naked H6174 , and set H3322 her as in the day H3117 that she was born H3205 , and make H7760 her as a wilderness H4057 , and set H7896 her like a dry H6723 land H776 , and slay H4191 her with thirst H6772 .
4. And I will not have mercy on her children; for they be the children of prostitutions.
4. And I will not H3808 have mercy upon H7355 her children H1121 ; for H3588 they H1992 be the children H1121 of whoredoms H2183 .
5. For their mother has played the harlot: she that conceived them has done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
5. For H3588 their mother H517 hath played the harlot H2181 : she that conceived H2029 them hath done shamefully H954 : for H3588 she said H559 , I will go H1980 after H310 my lovers H157 , that give H5414 me my bread H3899 and my water H4325 , my wool H6785 and my flax H6593 , mine oil H8081 and my drink H8250 .

7. And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
7. And she shall follow after H7291 H853 her lovers H157 , but she shall not H3808 overtake H5381 them ; and she shall seek H1245 them , but shall not H3808 find H4672 them : then shall she say H559 , I will go H1980 and return H7725 to H413 my first H7223 husband H376 ; for H3588 then H227 was it better H2896 with me than now H4480 H6258 .
8. For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal.
8. For she H1931 did not H3808 know H3045 that H3588 I H595 gave H5414 her corn H1715 , and wine H8492 , and oil H3323 , and multiplied H7235 her silver H3701 and gold H2091 , which they prepared H6213 for Baal H1168 .
9. Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness.
9. Therefore H3651 will I return H7725 , and take away H3947 my corn H1715 in the time H6256 thereof , and my wine H8492 in the season H4150 thereof , and will recover H5337 my wool H6785 and my flax H6593 given to cover H3680 H853 her nakedness H6172 .
10. And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of my hand.
10. And now H6258 will I discover H1540 H853 her lewdness H5040 in the sight H5869 of her lovers H157 , and none H3808 H376 shall deliver H5337 her out of mine hand H4480 H3027 .

14. Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably to her.
14. Therefore H3651 , behold H2009 , I H595 will allure H6601 her , and bring H1980 her into the wilderness H4057 , and speak H1696 comfortably H5921 H3820 unto her.

15. And I will give H5414 her H853 her vineyards H3754 from thence H4480 H8033 , and the valley H6010 of Achor H5911 for a door H6607 of hope H8615 : and she shall sing H6030 there H8033 , as in the days H3117 of her youth H5271 , and as in the day H3117 when she came up H5927 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
16. And it shall be at that day, said the LORD, that you shall call me Ishi; and shall call me no more Baali.
16. And it shall be H1961 at that H1931 day H3117 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 , that thou shalt call H7121 me Ishi H376 ; and shalt call H7121 me no H3808 more H5750 Baali H1180 .
