6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns,and make a wall, so that she will not find her paths.
7 She will pursue her lovers, but she will not reach them;and she will seek them but will not find them.Then she will say,“I will go and return to my first husband,for it was better for me then than now.”
8 But she did not know that it was I who provided herthe grain, the wine, and the oil,and multiplied her silver and goldthat they used for Baal.
9 Therefore I will take back My grain in its timeand My wine in its season,and I will recover My wool and My flax,given to cover her nakedness.
10 Therefore I will uncover her shamein the sight of her lovers,and no one will deliver her from My hand.
11 I will also bring to an end all her joy,her annual feasts, her New Moons,and her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.
12 I will destroy her vines and her fig trees,of which she has said, “These are my rewards that my lovers have given me.”I will make them a forest,and the beasts of the field will eat them.
