What does Hosea 2:7 mean?

She’ll run after her lovers but never catch them. She’ll look for them but won’t find them. Then she’ll say, 'I’ll go back to my first husband—it was better for me then.' Hosea 2:7 - Modern Text Bible

(After disappointment and failure, Israel will realize she was better off with God and consider returning.)
