Hosea 1:2-9
2 When Yahweh first spoke through Hosea, Yahweh said to Hosea, “aGo, take for yourself a wife of harlotry and have children of harlotry; for bthe land commits flagrant harlotry, forsaking Yahweh.” 3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and agave birth to a son for him. 4 And Yahweh said to him, “Name him aJezreel; for yet a little while, and bI will visit the bloodshed of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and cI will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease. 5 And it will be in that day, that I will abreak the bow of Israel in the bvalley of Jezreel.”
6 Then she conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. And Yahweh said to him, “Name her Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer ahave compassion on the house of Israel, that I would ever forgive them. 7 But I will have acompassion on the house of Judah and bsave them by Yahweh their God, and I will not save them by cbow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”
8 Then she weaned Lo-ruhamah. And she conceived and gave birth to a son. 9 And Yahweh said, “Name him Lo-ammi, for you are not My people, and I am not your God.”
