Chapter 2 Say ye unto your brethren,
Am I, and to your sisters, Ruhema,

00:06.220 --> 00:11.400
plead with your mother, plead,
for she is not my wife, neither am I her

00:11.400 --> 00:11.820
husband.

00:12.420 --> 00:16.520
Let her therefore put away her whoredoms
out of her sight, and her adulteries from

00:16.520 --> 00:21.360
between her breasts, lest I strip her
naked, and set her as in the day that she

00:21.360 --> 00:27.400
was born, and make her as a wilderness,
and set her like a dry land, and slay her

00:27.400 --> 00:28.020
with thirst.

00:28.020 --> 00:32.280
And I will not have mercy upon her
children, for they be the children of

00:32.280 --> 00:32.800
whoredoms.

00:33.420 --> 00:37.340
For their mother hath played the harlot,
she that conceived them hath done

00:37.340 --> 00:37.960
shamefully.

00:38.660 --> 00:43.360
For she said, I will go after my lovers,
that give me my bread and my water,

00:43.660 --> 00:46.780
my wool and my flax, mine oil and my
drink.

00:47.320 --> 00:52.060
Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way
with thorns, and make a wall, that she

00:52.060 --> 00:53.520
shall not find her paths.

00:53.960 --> 00:58.160
And she shall follow after her lovers,
but she shall not overtake them,

00:58.500 --> 01:01.380
and she shall seek them, but shall not
find them.

01:01.880 --> 01:06.420
Then shall she say, I will go and return
to my first husband, for then was it

01:06.420 --> 01:07.620
better with me than now.

01:08.080 --> 01:12.640
For she did not know that I gave her corn,
and wine, and oil, and multiplied her

01:12.640 --> 01:15.060
silver and gold, which they prepared for
bail.

01:15.660 --> 01:20.840
Therefore will I return, and take away my
corn in the time thereof, and my wine in

01:20.840 --> 01:24.920
the season thereof, and will recover my
wool and my flax given to cover her

01:24.920 --> 01:25.520
nakedness.

01:25.980 --> 01:30.360
And now will I discover her lewdness in
the sight of her lovers, and none shall

01:30.360 --> 01:31.800
deliver her out of mine hand.

01:32.220 --> 01:37.140
I will also cause all her mirth to cease,
her feast days, her new moons,

01:37.360 --> 01:40.440
and her sabbaths, and all her solemn
feasts.

01:40.920 --> 01:46.280
And I will destroy her vines and her fig
trees, whereof she hath said, These are my

01:46.280 --> 01:48.360
rewards that my lovers have given me.

01:48.720 --> 01:52.260
And I will make them a forest,
and the beasts of the field shall eat

01:52.260 --> 01:52.540
them.

01:52.540 --> 01:57.260
And I will visit upon her the days of
Balaam, wherein she burned incense to

01:57.260 --> 02:01.900
them, and she decked herself with her
earrings and her jewels, and she went

02:01.900 --> 02:04.260
after her lovers and forgot me.

02:04.700 --> 02:05.440
Saith the Lord.

02:06.040 --> 02:10.480
Therefore, behold, I will allure her,
and bring her into the wilderness,

02:10.920 --> 02:12.620
and speak comfortably unto her.

02:13.220 --> 02:17.740
And I will give her her vineyards from
thence, and the valley of Achor for a door

02:17.740 --> 02:18.240
of hope.

02:18.560 --> 02:23.180
And she shall sing there, as in the days
of her youth, and as in the day when she

02:23.180 --> 02:24.780
came up out of the land of Egypt.

02:25.180 --> 02:30.040
And it shall be at that day, saith the
Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishii,

02:30.440 --> 02:32.640
and shalt call me no more Baalai.

02:33.360 --> 02:37.660
For I will take away the names of Balaam
out of her mouth, and they shall no more

02:37.660 --> 02:39.100
be remembered by their name.

02:39.560 --> 02:43.140
And in that day will I make a covenant for
them with the beasts of the field,

02:43.560 --> 02:46.760
and with the fowls of heaven, and with the
creeping things of the ground.

02:47.180 --> 02:51.060
And I will break the bow and the sword,
and the battle out of the earth,

02:51.060 --> 02:53.340
and will make them to lie down safely.

02:53.960 --> 02:56.300
And I will betroth thee unto me for ever.

02:56.880 --> 03:00.860
Yea, I will betroth thee unto me in
righteousness, and in judgment,

03:01.380 --> 03:03.740
and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.

03:04.120 --> 03:06.800
I will even betroth thee unto me in
faithfulness.

03:07.300 --> 03:11.080
And thou shalt know the Lord, and it shall
come to pass in that day.

03:11.660 --> 03:16.300
I will hear, saith the Lord, I will hear
the heavens, and they shall hear the

03:16.300 --> 03:21.580
earth, and the earth shall hear the corn,
and the wine, and the oil, and they shall

03:21.580 --> 03:22.460
hear Jezreel.

03:22.960 --> 03:27.320
And I will sow her unto me in the earth,
and I will have mercy upon her that had

03:27.320 --> 03:28.300
not obtained mercy.

03:28.720 --> 03:34.300
And I will say to them, which were not my
people, Thou art my people, and they shall

03:34.300 --> 03:36.140
say, Thou art my God.
