Overtaken

"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.'
Therefore I will hedge up her way with thorns,
   and I will build a wall against her,
   so that she cannot find her paths.
She shall pursue her lovers
   but not overtake them,
and she shall seek them
   but shall not find them.
 Then she shall say,
   'I will go and return to my first husband,
   for it was better for me then than now.'
And she did not know
   that it was I who gave her
    the grain, the wine, and the oil,
and who lavished on her silver and gold,
    which they used for Baal.
Therefore I will take back
   my grain in its time,
   and my wine in its season,
and I will take away my wool and my flax,
   which were to cover her nakedness.
Now I will uncover her lewdness
   in the sight of her lovers,
   and no one shall rescue her out of my hand."
