Hosea 2:3 in Context — Hosea 2
1 Dizei a vossos irmãos: Meu Povo, e vossas irmãs: Amada.
2 Repreendei vossa mãe, repreendei; porque ela não é minha mulher, nem eu seu marido; que tire suas prostituições diante de si, e seus adultérios dentre seus peitos;
3 Para não acontecer que eu a deixe nua, e a ponha como no dia em que nasceu, e a faça como um deserto, e a deixe como terra seca, e a mate de sede.
4 E não terei compaixão de seus filhos, porque são filhos de prostituições.
5 Pois sua mãe se prostituiu; a que os concebeu age de forma vergonhosa; porque disse: Irei atrás meus amantes, que dão meu pão e minha água, minha lã e meu linho, meu azeite e minha bebida.
