KJV ORIGINAL
And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
She'll chase after all these other relationships, but nothing will work out. She'll keep searching for something that fulfills her, but come up empty every time. Finally, she'll realize 'You know what? I need to go back to my first love. Things were actually so much better when I was with him.'
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes you have to lose everything else to remember what was actually good for you.
