Hosea 2:12 Context
10And now will I discouer her lewdnesse in the sight of her louers, and none shall deliuer her out of mine hand. 11I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast daies, her new moones, and her Sabbaths, and all her solemne feasts. 12And I will destroy her vines and her figge trees, whereof she hath said; These are my rewards that my louers haue giuen me: and I will make them a forrest, and the beasts of the field shall eate them. 13And I will visite vpon her the daies of Baalim, wherein she burnt incense to them, and she decked her selfe with her eare-rings, and her Iewels, and she went after her louers, and forgate me, saith the Lord. 14¶ Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wildernesse, and speake comfortably vnto her.
