Hosea 2:5

English Standard Version

5 For their mother has played the whore; she who conceived them has acted shamefully. For she said, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.’ (Jer 44:17; Ho 1:2; Ho 2:8; Ho 2:12) 

New International Version

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.” 

New International Reader’s Version

5 Their mother hasn’t been faithful to me. She who became pregnant with them has brought shame on herself. She said, “I will chase after my lovers. They give me my food and water. They provide me with wool and linen. They give me olive oil and wine.” 

King James Version

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.
