1 your wife who's in bed with her latest boyfriend, your cheating wife. Love her the way I, God, love the Israelite people, even as they flirt and party with every god that takes their fancy."
2 It cost me the price of a slave.
3 No more whoring, no more sleeping around. You're living with me and I'm living with you."
4 stripped of security and protection, without religion and comfort, godless and prayerless.
5 come back looking for their God and their David-King. They'll come back chastened to reverence before God and his good gifts, ready for the End of the story of his love.
