Yahweh said to me, "Go again, love a woman loved by another, and an adulteress, even as Yahweh loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins."
For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, without an image, without an ephod, without the teraphim: And afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; [or their Messiah] and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days ( Hsa Hosea 3:4-5 ).
