"Therefore I will block her path with thornbushes;

I will wall her in so that she cannot find her way...

Therefore I am now going to allure her;

I will lead her into the wilderness

and speak tenderly to her.

There I will give her back her vineyards,

and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope.

There she will respond..." Hosea 2:6-15
