Translated from Hebrew and Greek with AI, then checked for clarity and fidelity.

1. Yahweh said to me, "Go again, love a woman loved by a companion and an adulteress, like the love of Yahweh for the children of Israel, who turn to other gods and love raisin cakes."
2. I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver, a homer of barley, and a half homer of barley.
3. I said to her, "You shall live with me many days; you shall not commit fornication, nor belong to another man—I will belong to you also."
4. For many days the sons of Israel will dwell without king, without ruler, without sacrifice, without pillar, without ephod, and without teraphim.
5. Afterward the sons of Israel will return and seek Yahweh their God, and David their king, and will stand in awe of Yahweh and his goodness in the final days.
