Hosea Chapter 1

New American Standard Bible 1995

Hosea’s Wife and Children

1The word of the Lord which came to 1Hosea the son of Beeri, during the days of 2Uzziah, 3Jotham, 4Ahaz and 5Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and during the days of 6Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

2When the Lord first spoke through Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea, “7Go, take to yourself a wife of harlotry and have children of harlotry; for 8the land commits flagrant harlotry, 9forsaking the Lord.” 3So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and 10bore him a son. 4And the Lord said to him, “Name him 11Jezreel; for yet a little while, and 12I will 13punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed of Jezreel, and 14I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. 5On that day I will 15break the bow of Israel in the 16valley of Jezreel.”

6Then she conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. And 17the Lord said to him, “Name her 18Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer 19have compassion on the house of Israel, that I would ever forgive them. 7But I will have 20compassion on the house of Judah and 21deliver them by the Lord their God, and will not deliver them by 22bow, sword, battle, horses or horsemen.”

8When she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived and gave birth to a son. 9And 23the Lord said, “Name him 24Lo-ammi, for you are not My people and I am not 25your God.”

1026Yet the number of the sons of Israel Will be like the 27sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered; And 28in the place Where it is said to them, “You are 29not My people,” It will be said to them, “You are the 30sons of the living God.”11And the 31sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be 32gathered together, And they will appoint for themselves 33one leader, And they will go up from the land, For great will be the day of Jezreel.
