Hosea 1:1-11 — Hosea's Wife and Children
Hos.1.1-11
1The word of the LORD that came to Hosea son of Beeri in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel. 2When the LORD first spoke through Hosea, the LORD said to Hosea, “Go, take for yourself a wife of promiscuity and children of promiscuity, for the land has committed great prostitution by turning away from the LORD.” 3So he went and took Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son. 4And the LORD said to him, “Call his name Jezreel, for yet a little while and I will punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed of Jezreel , and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.” 5And in that day I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel. 6She conceived again and bore a daughter. And he said to him, “Call her name Lo-Ruhamah , for I will no longer show compassion to the house of Israel, that I should ever forgive them.” 7But I will show compassion to the house of Judah, and I will save them by the LORD their God. I will not save them by bow or sword or battle, by horses or horsemen. 8After she had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, she conceived and bore a son. 9And he said, “Call his name Lo-Ammi , for you are not my people, and I am not yours.” 10Yet the number of the children of Israel will be like the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured or counted. And in the place where it was said to them, “You are not my people,” it will be said to them, “Children of the living God.” 11Then the children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint for themselves one head, and they will go up from the land ; for great will be the day of Jezreel.
