TMB

NIV

1 "Say ye unto your brethren, `Ammi' [that is, My people], and to your sisters, `Ruhamah' [that is, Having obtained mercy].
1 “Say of your brothers, ‘My people,’ and of your sisters, ‘My loved one.’
2 "Plead with your mother, plead; for she is not My wife, neither am I her Husband. Let her therefore put away her whoredoms out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts,
2 “Rebuke your mother, rebuke her, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove the adulterous look from her face and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.
3 lest I strip her naked and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst.
3 Otherwise I will strip her naked and make her as bare as on the day she was born; I will make her like a desert, turn her into a parched land, and slay her with thirst.
4 And I will not have mercy upon her children, for they are the children of whoredoms.
4 I will not show my love to her children, because they are the children of adultery.
5 For their mother hath played the harlot; she that conceived them hath done shamefully. For she said, `I will go after my lovers that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink.'
5 Their mother has been unfaithful and has conceived them in disgrace. She said, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me my food and my water, my wool and my linen, my olive oil and my drink.’
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.
