⁴ And I will not have pity on her children,
    because they are children of whoredom.
⁵         Because their mother was unfaithful;^[a]
she who conceived them has acted shamefully,
    for she said:
        “I will go after my lovers,
the ones who give me my bread, my water,
    my wool, and my flax,
        my oil, and my drink.”
⁶ Therefore, Look!
    I am going to hedge her path^[b] with thorns,^[c]
        and I will build a stone wall, a stone wall against her,
    and she will not find her paths.
