Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible ASV American Standard Version

Then the LORD said to me, “ Go show love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress . Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites , though they turn to other gods and offer raisin cakes to idols . ”

And Jehovah said unto me, Go again, love a woman beloved of `her' friend, and an adulteress , even as Jehovah loveth the children of Israel , though they turn unto other gods , and love cakes of raisins .

So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a lethech of barley .

So I bought her to me for fifteen `pieces' of silver , and a homer of barley, and a half-homer of barley ;

Then I said to her, “You must live with me for many days; you must not be promiscuous or belong to another , and I will do the same for you . ”

and I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot , and thou shalt not be any man's wife: so will I also be toward thee .

For the Israelites must live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, and without ephod or idol.

For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king , and without prince, and without sacrifice , and without pillar, and without ephod or teraphim:

Afterward , the people of Israel will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king . They will come trembling to the LORD and to His goodness in the last days.

afterward shall the children of Israel return , and seek Jehovah their God , and David their king , and shall come with fear unto Jehovah and to his goodness in the latter days.
