Hosea 1 JUB

1 The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

2 The beginning of the word of the Lord with Hosea. And the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land shall give itself over to whoredom by departing from the Lord.

3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, who conceived and bore him a son.

4 And the Lord said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will visit the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.

5 And it shall come to pass in that day that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.

6 And she conceived again and bore a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will never again have mercy upon the house of Israel, but I will utterly forget them.

7 But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah and will save them in the Lord their God and will not save them by bow, by sword, by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.

8 And after she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived and bore a son.

9 Then said God, Call his name Loammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.

10 With all this, the number of the sons of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.

11 And the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel shall be congregated together, and they shall raise up for themselves one head, and they shall rise up from the land: for the day of Jezreel is great.
