Revised Literal Translation

Hosea 1:6-9

6And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Lo–ruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.1 2 3 7But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by Yhwh their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.

8Now when she had weaned Lo–ruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son. 9Then said God, Call his name Lo–ammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.4
