Hosea Chapter 1

New American Standard Bible 2020

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 for yourself a wife 8inclined to infidelity, and children of infidelity; for 9the land commits flagrant infidelity, 10abandoning the Lord.” 3So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and 11bore him a son. 4And the Lord said to him, “Name him 12Jezreel; for in just a little while 13I will 14punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed of Jezreel, and 15I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. 5On that day I will 16break the bow of Israel in the 17Valley of Jezreel.”

6Then she conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. And 18the Lord said to him, “Name her 19Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer 20take pity on the house of Israel, that I would ever forgive them. 7But I will take 21pity on the house of Judah and 22save them by the Lord their God, and will not save them by 23bow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”

8When she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived and gave birth to a son. 9And 24the Lord said, “Name him 25Lo-ammi, because you are not My people, and I am not 26your God.”

1027Yet the number of the sons of Israel Will be like the 28sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or counted; And 29in the place Where it is said to them, “You are 30not My people,” It will be said to them, “You are the 31sons of the living God.”11And the 32sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be 33gathered together, And they will appoint for themselves 34one leader, And they will go up from the land, For the day of Jezreel will be great.
