Hoseiah Joseiah one the word of the Lord that came

to Hoseiah, the son of Beorhi in the days of Aziah,

Jotham Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the

days of Jereboam, the son of Josh, king of Israel.

When the Lord first spoke through Hoseah, the Lord said

to Hoseah.

Go take to yourself a wife of Hordom, and have

children of Hordom, for the land commits great hardom by

forsaking the Lord.

So he went and took Gomer, the daughter of Diblium,

and she conceived and bore him a son. And the

Lord said to him, call.

His name Jezreel, For in just a little while I

will punish the house of Jihu for the blood of Jezreel,

and I will put an end to the kingdom of

the House of Israel. And on that day I will

break the beau of Israel. In the valley of Jezrael.

She conceived again and bore a daughter, And the Lord

said to him.

Call her name no mercy, for I will no more

have mercy on the house of Israel, to forgive them

at all. But I will have mercy on the house

of Judah, and I will save them by the Lord

their God. I will not save them by beau or

by sword, or by war, or by horses or by horsemen.

When she had weaned no mercy, she conceived and bore

a son. And the Lord said.

Call his name not my people, for you are not

my people, and I am not your God.

Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be

like the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured

or numbered. And in the place where it was said

to them, you are not my people, it shall be

said to them, children of the Living God, and the

children of Judah, and the children of Israel shall be

gathered together, and they shall appoint for themselves one head.

And they shall go up from the land. For great

shall be the day of.

Jezreel Hoseiah too.

Say to your brothers, you are my people. And to

your sisters you have received mercy. Plead with your mother.

Plead for she is.

Not my wife, and I am not her husband. That

she put away her hoarring from her face and her

adultery from between her breasts, lest I strip her naked

and make her as in the day she was born

and make her like a wilderness, and make her like

a parched land, and kill her with thirst. Upon her

children also, I will have no mercy because they are

children of Horden. For their mother has played the whore.

She who conceived them has acted shamefully.

For she said, I will.

Go after my lovers, who give me my bread and

my water, my wool, and my flax, my oil, and

my drink.

Therefore I will hedge up her way with thorns, and

I will build a wall against her so that she

cannot find her packs. She shall pursue her lovers, but

not overtake them, and she shall seek them, but shall

not find them.

Then she shall say.

I will go and return to my first husband, for

it was better for me then and now.

And she did not know that it was I who

gave her the grain, the wine, and the oil, and

who lavished on her silver and gold, which.

They use for bail.

Therefore, I will take back my grain in its time

and my wine in its season. And I will take

away my wool and my flax, which were to cover

her nakedness. Now I will uncover her lewdness in the

sight of her lovers, and no one shall.

Rescue her out of my hand, and I.

Will put an end to all her mirth, her feasts,

her new moons, her sabbaths, and all her appointed feasts.

And I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees,

of which she.

Said, these are my wages, which my lovers have given me.

I will make them a forest, and the beasts of

the field shall devour them. And I will punish her

for the feast days of the vales, when she burned

offerings to them and adorned her so with her reemi

and jewelry, and went after.

Her lovers and forgot me, declares the Lord.

Therefore, behold, I will allure her and bring her into

the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her. And there I

will give her her vineyards, and make the valley of

Acor a door of hope. And there she shall answer

as in the days of her youth, as at the

time when she came out of the land of Egypt.

And in that day, declares the Lord, you will call

me my husband, and no longer will you call my bale,

For I will remove the names of the bales from

her mouth, and they shall be remembered by name no more.

And I will make for them a covenant on that

day with the beasts of the field, the birds of

the heavens, and the creeping things of the ground. And

I will abolish the bow, the sword, and war from

the land. And I will make you lie down in safety.

And I will betrothe you to me forever. I will

betrothe you to me in righteousness and.

In justice, in steadfast love, and in mercy.

I will betrothe you to me in faithfulness.

And you shall know the Lord. And in that day

I will answer, declares the Lord. I will answer the heavens,

and they shall answer the earth, and the earth shall

answer the grain, the wine, and the oil, and they

shall answer Jezrael. And I will sow her for myself

in the land. And I will have mercy on no mercy.

And I will say to not my people, you are

my people, and he shall say you are my God.

Hoseiah three.

And the Lord said.

To me, go again, love a woman who is loved

by another man and is an adulteress, even as the

Lord loves the children of Israel, though they turn to

other gods and love cakes of raisins.

So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver, and

a homer and a lithic of barley. And I said

to her, you must dwell as mine for many days.

You shall not play the whore or belong to another man.

So will I also be to you.

For the children of Israel shall dwell many days without

king or prince, without sacrifice, or pillar, without ephod or

household gods. Afterward, the children of Israel shall return and

seek the Lord their God, and David their King. And

they shall come in fear to the Lord and to

his goodness in the latter days.

Hoseiah four.

Here the word of the Lord, O children of ISRAELI.

For the Lord has a controversy with the inhabitants of

the land. There is no faithfulness or steadfast love, and

no knowledge of God.

In the land.

There is swearing, lying, murder, steely, and committing adultery.

They break all bounds, and.

Bloodshed follows bloodshed.

Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in his languish.

And also the beasts of the field, and the birds

of the heavens, and even the fish of the sea

are taken away. Yet let no one contend, and let

none accuse, For with you is my contention of priest.

You shall stumble by day. The prophet also shall stumble

with you by night, and I will destroy your mother.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

Because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being

a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the

law of your God, I also will forget your children.

The more they increase, the more they send against me,

I will change their glory into shade.

They feed on the sin of my people.

They are greedy for their iniquity, and it shall be

like people like priest. I will punish them for their

ways and repay them for their deeds. They shall eat,

but not be satisfied. They shall play the whore, but

not multiply. Because they have forsaken the Lord. To cherish

Hordom wine a new wine, which take away the understanding.

My people inquire of a piece of wood, and their

walking staff gives them oracles. For a spirit of horde

them has led them astray, and they have left their.

God to play the horn.

They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains and burn

offerings on the hills under oak, poplar and terribild. Because

their shade is good Therefore, your daughters play the whore,

and your brides commit adultery. I will not punish your

daughters when they play the whore, nor your brides when

they commit adultery. For the men themselves go aside with

prostitutes and sacrifice with cult prostitutes, and the people without

understanding shall come to ruin.

Though you play the whore, Oh Israel, let not Judah

become guilty.

Enter not into Gilgal, nor go up to beth Abon,

and swear not as the Lord lives like a stubborn heifer.

Israel is stubborn. Can the Lord now feed them like

a lamb in a broad pasture?

Ephraim is joined to idols, leave him alone.

When their drink is gone, They give themselves to wring

their rulers.

Dearly love shame.

A wind has wrapped them in its wings, and they

shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.

Hoseiah five.

Hear this, Oh priests, pay attention, O house of ISRAELI

give ear, oh house of the King, for the judgment

is for you. For you have been a snare mizpah

and a net spread upon Tabor, and the revolters have

gone deep into slaughter, But I will discipline all of them.

I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from me.

For now, oh Ephraim, you have played the whore. Israel

is defiled their deeds. Do not permit them to return

to their God. For the spirit of Horedom is within them,

and they know not the Lord.

The pride of Israel testifies to his face.

Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in his guilty. Judah also

shall stumble with them. With their flocks and herds. They

shall go to seek the Lord, but they will not

find him.

He has withdrawn from them.

They have dealt faithlessly with the Lord, for they have

born alien children.

Now the new moon shall devour them with their fields.

Blow the horn and gibbea the trumpet, and rama sound

the alarm at beth Avy.

We follow you, oh Benjamin.

Ifrayam shall become a desolation in the day of punishment

among the tribes of Israel, I make known what is sure.

The princes of Judah have become like those who moved

the landmark upon them.

I will pour out my wrath like water.

Iphraam is oppressed, crushed in judgment, because he was determined

to go after Philip. But I am like a moth

to Ephraim, and like dry rot to the house of Judah.

When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah his wound. Then

Ephraim went to Assyria and sent it to the great King.

But he is not able to cure you or heal

your wound.

For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, and

like a young lion to the house of Judah. I

even I will tear and go, I will carry off

and know and shall rescue. I will return again to

my place until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face,

and in their distress earnestly seek me.

Hoseiah six.

Come, let us return to the Lord. For he has

torn us that he may heal us. He has struck

us down, and he will bind us up. After two days,

he will revive us. On the third day he will

raise us up that we may live before him.

Let us know.

Let us press on to know the Lord his going

out as sure as the dawn. He will come to

us as the showers, as the spring rains that water

the earth.

What shall I do with you, oh Ephrai, What shall

I do with you? O?

Judah, your love is like a morning cloud, like the dew.

That goes early away. Therefore I have hewn them by

the prophets. I have slain them by the words of

my mouth. And my judgment goes forth as the light.

For I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice the knowledge

of God rather than burnt offerings. But like Adam, they

transgressed the covenant. There they dealt faithlessly with me. Gilead

is a city of evildoers, tracked with blood, as robbers

lie in wait for a man. So the priests band together.

They murder on the way to Shachm. They commit villainly

in the house of Israel. I have seen a horrible thing.

Ephraim's hoard to me is there. Israel is defiled.

For you also owe Judah a harvest disappointed. When I

restore the fortunes of my people.

Hoseiah seven, when I would heal Israel, the iniquity of

Efraim is revealed, and the evil deeds of Samaria.

For they deal falsely.

The thief breaks in and the bandits rayed outside. But

they do not consider that I remember all their evil.

Now their deeds surround them. They are before my face.

By their evil they make the king glad, and the

princes by their treachery.

They are all adulterers.

They are like a.

Heated oven whose baker ceases to stir the fire from

the kneading of the doe until it is eleven. On

the day of our king, the princes became sick with

the heat of wine. He stretched out his hand with mockers,

for with hearts like an oven, they approach their intrigue

all night. Their angry smolders. In the morning it blazes

like a flaming fire. All of them are hot as

an oven, and they.

Devour their rulers. All their kings have fallen, and none

of them calls upon me.

Ipraym mixes himself with the peoples. Hephraym is a cake

not turned.

Strangers devour his strength, and he knows it not. Gray

hairs are sprinkled upon him, and he knows it not.

The pride of Israel testifies.

To his face.

Yet they do not return to the Lord their God,

nor seek him. For all this, Ephraim is like a dove,

silly and without sins, calling to Egypt, going to Assyria.

As they go, I will spread over them my net

I will bring them down like birds of the heavens.

I will discipline them according to the report made to

their congregation. Whoa to them, for they have strayed from me.

Destruction to them, for they have rebelled against me. I

would redeem them, but they speak lies against me.

They do not cry to me from the heart, but.

They wail upon their beds for grain and wine.

They gash themselves. They rebel against me.

Although I trained and strengthen their arms, yet they advise

evil against me.

They return, but not upward.

They are like a treacherous foe.

Their princes shall fall by the sword because of the

insolence of their tongue. This shall be their derision in

the land of Egypt.

Hoseiah eight.

Set the trumpet to your lips.

One like a vulture is over the house of the Lord.

Because they have transgressed my covenant and rebelled against my law.

To me, they cried, my God, we Israel know you.

Israel has spurned the good. The enemy shall pursue him.

They made kings, but not through me. They set up princes,

but I knew it. Not with their silver and gold,

they made idols for their own destruction. I have spurned

your calf o Samaria. My anger burns against them. How

long will they be incapable of innocence?

For it is from Israel. A craftsman made it. It

is not God.

The calf of Samarrius shall be broken to pieces. For

they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind.

The standing grain has no heads. It shall yield no flower.

If it were to yield, strangers would devour it. Israel

is swallowed up already. They are among the nations as

a useless vessel, for they have gone up to a styria,

a wild donkey wandering alone.

Ephraeum has hired lovers, though.

They hire allies among the nations. I will soon gather

them up, and the king and princes shall soon.

Writhe because of the tribute.

Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning, they have become

to him altars for sinning.

Were I to write for.

Him my laws by the ten thousands, they would be

regarded as a strange thing.

As for my sacrificial offerings.

They sacrifice meat and eat it. But the Lord does

not accept them.

Now he will remember their iniquity and punish their sins.

They shall return to Egypt.

For Israel has forgotten his maker and built palaces, and

Judah has multiplied fortified cities.

So I will send a fire upon.

His cities, and it shall devour her strongholds. Hoseiah nine,

rejoice not, oh Israel, exult not like the peoples, for

you have played the whole forsaken your God. You have

loved a prostitute's wages on all threshing floors, threshing floor

and wine that shall not feed them, and the new

wine shall fail them. They shall not remain in the

land of the Lord. But Ephraeum shall return to Egypt,

and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria. They shall

not pour drink offerings of wine to the Lord, and

their sacrifices.

Shall not please him. It shall be like mourners bread

to them.

All who eat, if it shall be defiled, for their

bread shall be for their hunger. Only it shall not

come to the house of the Lord. What will you

do on the day of the appointed festival and on

the day of the feast of the Lord?

For behold, they are going away from destruction.

But Egypt shall gather them, Memphis shall bury them, Nettles

shall possess their precious things of silver thorns shall be

in their tenses. The days of punishment have come. The

days of recompense have come. Israel shall know it.

The prophet is a fool.

The man of the spirit is mad because of your

great iniquity and great hatred. The prophet is the watchmen

of Ephraim with my God. Yet a fowler's snare is

on all his ways, and hatred in the house of

his God.

They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in.

The days of Gibea. He will remember their iniquity. He

will punish their sins like grapes in the wilderness. I

found Israel like the first fruit on the fig tree

in its first season.

I saw your fathers.

But they came to Beilpire and consecrated themselves to the

thing of shame, and became detestable, like the thing they loved.

Ephraim's glory shall fly away like a bird.

No birth, no pregnancy, no conception.

Even if they.

Bring up children. I will bereave.

Them till none is left whoa to them when I

depart from them. Iphraym, as I have seen, was like

a young palm planted in a manner.

But Iphraim must lead his children.

Out to slaughter.

Give them, o, Lord, what will you give? Give them

a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. Every evil of theirs

is in Gilgal.

There.

I began to hate them because of the wickedness of

their deeds.

I will drive them out of my house. I will love.

Them no more.

All their princes are rebels.

If frayum is stricken, their root is dried up, they

shall bear no fruit, even though they give birth. I

will put their beloved children to death. My God will

reject him because they have not listened to him. They

shall be wanderers among the nations.

Hoseiah ten.

Israel is a luxuriant find that yields its fruit.

The more his fruit increased, the more alters he built.

As his country improved, he improved his pillars.

Their heart is false.

Now they must bear their guilt.

The Lord will break down their altars and destroy their pillars.

For now they will say.

We have no king, for we do not fear the Lord.

And a king, what could he do for us?

They utter mere words with empty oaths. They make covenants.

So judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows

of the field. The inhabitants of Samaria tremble for the

calf of beth Abon. Its people mourn for it, and

so do its idolatrous priests, those who rejoiced over it

and over its glory.

For it has departed from them.

The thing itself shall be carried to Assyria as tribute

to the great king. Iphraeum shall be put to shame,

and Israel shall be ashamed of his Idolfe Samarius King

shall perish like a twig on the face of the

waters the high places of Aidan. The sin of Israel

shall be destroyed. Thorn and thistle shall grow upon their altars.

And they shall say, to the mountains.

Cover us, and to the hills fall on us. From

the days of Ghibbea, you have sinned, oh Israel, there

they have continued. Shall not the war against the unjust

overtake them in Gibea?

When I please, I will discipline them, and nations shall

be gathered against them when they are bound up for

their double iniquity.

Ephraim was a trained cat that loved to thresh, and

I spared her fair neck. But I will put Ephraim

to the yoke. Juda must plow Jacob must hero for himself.

So for yourselves righteousness, reap steadfast love, break up your

fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord,

that he may come and reign righteousness upon you. You

have plowed iniquity, you have reaped injustice. You have eaten

the fruit of lies, because you have trusted in your

own way and in the.

Multitude of your warriors.

Therefore the tumult of war shall arise among your people,

and all your fortresses shall be destroyed. As Shelman destroyed

beth Arbor on the day of battle, mothers were dashed

in pieces with their children. Thus it shall be done

to you, o Bethel, because of your great evil. At dawn,

the king of Israel shall be utterly cut off.

Hoseiah eleven.

When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out

of Egypt I called my son. The more they were called,

the more they went away. They kept sacrificing to the

bales and burning offerings to idols. Yet it was I

who taught Aphriim to walk. I took them up by

their arms, but they did not know that I healed them.

I led them with cords of kindness, with the bands

of love, and I became to them as one who

eases the yoke on their jaws, and I bent down

to them and fed them.

They shall not return to the land of Egypt, but

as Sirius shall be their king. Because they have refused

to return to me, the swords shall rage against their cities,

consume the bars of their gates, and devour them.

Because of their own counsels.

My people are bent on turning away from me, And

though they call out to the most High, he shall

not raise them up at all.

How can I give you up.

O Ephraim, How can I hand you over, oh Israel?

How can I make you like admir How can I

treat you like Zeboim?

My heart recoils within me, my compassion grows warm and tender.

I will not execute my burning anger.

I will not again destroy Ephraim, for I am God

and not a man, the holy One in your midst,

and I will not come in wrath.

They shall go after the Lord. He will roar like

a lion.

When he roars, his children shall come trembling from the west.

They shall come trembling like birds from Egypt, and like

doves from the land of Assyria.

And I will return them.

To their homes, declares the Lord if Raeam has surrounded

me with lives in the house of Israel with deceiti.

But Judah still walks with God and is faithful to

the Holy One.

Hoseiah twelve.

Iphraim feeds on the wind and pursues the east wind

all day long. They multiply falsehood and violence. They make

a covenant with Assyria, and oil is carried to Egypt.

The Lord has an indictment against Judah and will punish

Jacob according to his ways.

He will repay him according to his deeds.

In the womb, he took his brother by the heel,

and in his manhood he strove with God.

He strove with the Angel and prevailed.

He wept and sought his favor. He met God at Bethel,

and there God spoke with us. The Lord, the God

of Hosts. The Lord is his memorial name.

So you, by the help of your God return, hold

fast to love and justice, and wait continually for your God.

A merchant in whose hands are false balances, he loves

to oppress.

Ephraim has said.

Ah, but I am rich. I have found wealth for

myself in all my labors. They cannot find in me

iniquity or sin.

I am the Lord your God, from the land of Egypt.

I will again make you dwell intents. As in the

days of the appointed Feast, I spoke to the prophets.

It was I who multiplied visions, and through the prophets

gave perils.

If there is iniquity in Gilead, they shall surely come

to nothing.

In Gilgau they sacrifice bulls. Their altars also.

Are like stone heaps on the furrows of the field.

Jacob fled to the land of Erin There Israel served

for a wife, and for a wife he guarded sheep

by a prophet.

The Lord brought.

Israel up from Egypt, and by a prophet he was guarded.

Ephraim has given bitter provocation, so his Lord will leave

his blood guilt on him and will repay him for

his disgraceful deeds.

Hoseiah thirteen.

When Ivraim spoke, there was trembling. He was exalted in Israel,

but he incurred guilt through bail and died. And now

they sin more and more and make for themselves metal

images idols skillfully made of their silver, all of them

the work of craftsmith.

It is said of.

Him, those who offer human sacrifice kiss Chaz. Therefore they

shall be like the morning mist, or like the dew

that goes early away, like the chap that swirls from

the threshing floor, or like smoke from a window.

But I am the Lord, your God, from the land

of Egypt. You know no god but me, And besides

me there is no savior.

It was I who knew you in the wilderness, in

the land of drought. But when they had grazed, they

became full, They were filled, and their heart was lifted up.

Therefore they forgot me.

So I am to them like a lion, like a leopard.

I will lurk beside the way.

I will fall upon them like a.

Bear robbed of her cubs.

I will tear open their breasts, and there I will

devour them like a lion, as a wild beast would

rip them open. He destroys you, o Israel, for you

are against me, against your helper. Where now is your

king to save you? In all your cities, Where are

all your rulers, those.

Of whom you said, give me a king and princes.

I gave you a king in my anger, and I

took him away in my wrath.

The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up.

His sin is kept in store.

The pangs of childbirth come for him.

But he is an unwise son, for at the right

time he does not present himself at the opening of

the womb. Shall I ransom them from the power of Shiel?

Shall I redeem them from death?

Oh Death?

Where are your plagues?

Oh Shiel?

Where is your.

Compassion?

Is hidden from my eyes? Though he may flourish among

his brothers. The east wind, the wind of the Lord,

shall come rising from the wilderness, and his fountain shall

dry up. His spring shall be parched.

It shall strip his treasury of every precious thing.

Samaria shall bear her guilt because she has rebelled against

her God.

They shall fall by the sword.

Their little ones shall be dashed in pieces, and their

pregnant women ripped open.

Hoseiah fourteen.

Return o Israel to the Lord your God, for you

have stumbled because of your iniquity.

Take with you words and return to the Lord. Say

to him.

Take away all iniquity except what is good, and we

will pay with bulls. The vows of our lips. Assirias

shall not save us we will not ride on horses,

and we will say no more our God, to the

work of our hands. In you, the orphan finds mercy.

I will heal their apostasy. I will love them freely,

for my anger has turned from them. I will be

like the dew to Israel. He shall blossom like the lily.

He shall take root like the trees of Lebanon. His

shoot shall spread out. His beauty shall be like the olive,

and his fragrance like Lebanon. They shall return and dwell

beneath my shadow. They shall flourish like the grain. They

shall blossom like the vine. Their veins shall be like

the wine of Lebanon.

Oh Ephraim, what have I to do with Idolis?

It is I who answer and look after you. I

am like an evergreen cypress. From me comes your fruit.

Whoever is wise, let him understand these things.

Whoever is discerning, let.

Him know them.

For the ways of the Lord are right, and the

upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them.
