Hosea 1:4-9

4And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto him, CallH7121 his nameH8034 JezreelH3157; for yet a littleH4592 while, and I will avengeH6485 the bloodH1818 of JezreelH3157 upon the houseH1004 of JehuH3058, and will cause to ceaseH7673 the kingdomH4468 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.1 5And it shall come to pass at that dayH3117, that I will breakH7665 the bowH7198 of IsraelH3478 in the valleyH6010 of JezreelH3157.

6And she conceived againH2029, and bareH3205 a daughterH1323. And God saidH559 unto him, CallH7121 her nameH8034 Lo–ruhamahH3819: for I will no moreH3254 have mercyH7355 upon the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; but I will utterlyH5375 take them awayH5375.234 7But I will have mercyH7355 upon the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, and will saveH3467 them by YhwhH3068 their GodH430, and will not saveH3467 them by bowH7198, nor by swordH2719, nor by battleH4421, by horsesH5483, nor by horsemenH6571.

8Now when she had weanedH1580 Lo–ruhamahH3819, she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 a sonH1121. 9Then saidH559 God, CallH7121 his nameH8034 Lo–ammiH3818: for ye are not my peopleH5971, and I will not be your God.5
