1. The Lord said to me, “Go again and show your love for a woman who is committing adultery with a lover. You must love her just as I still love the people of Israel, even though they turn to other gods and like to take offerings of raisins to idols.”
2. So I paid fifteen pieces of silver and 150 kilogrammes of barley to buy her.
3. I told her that for a long time she would have to wait for me without being a prostitute or committing adultery; and during this time I would wait for her.
