For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
Wilt thou not from this time cry unto me, My father, thou {art} the guide of my youth?
Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time {was} the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.
Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet {is} she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.
Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet {is} she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.
Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
Wilt thou not from this time cry unto me, My father, thou {art} the guide of my youth?
Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.
