6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths.
6
Therefore I will block her path with thornbushes; I will wall her in so that she cannot find her way.
7 And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
7
She will chase after her lovers but not catch them; she will look for them but not find them. Then she will say, ‘I will go back to my husband as at first, for then I was better off than now.’
