ગુજરાતીહોશિયા ૩:૧
યહોવાહે મને કહ્યું, “ફરીથી જા, ઇઝરાયલ લોકો બીજા દેવો તરફ વળી જાય છે અને સૂકી દ્રાક્ષોને પ્રેમ કરે છે છતાં તેમના યહોવાહ તેમના પર પ્રેમ કરે છે તેવી જ રીતે તું તેના પ્રેમીને પ્યારી તથા વ્યભિચારી સ્ત્રી પર પ્રીતિ કર.”
हिन्दीहोशे ३:१
फिर यहोवा ने मुझसे कहा, “अब जाकर एक ऐसी स्त्री से प्रीति कर, जो व्यभिचारिणी होने पर भी अपने प्रिय की प्यारी हो; क्योंकि उसी भाँति यद्यपि इस्राएली पराए देवताओं की ओर फिरे, और किशमिश की टिकियों से प्रीति रखते हैं, तो भी यहोवा उनसे प्रीति रखता है।”

In context

1The LORD said to me, “Go again, love a woman loved by another, and an adulteress, even as the LORD loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins.”

2So I bought her for myself for fifteen pieces of silver and a homer and a half of barley.

3I said to her, “You shall stay with me many days. You shall not play the prostitute, and you shall not be with any other man. I will also be so toward you.”
