He Xia Shu_Chapter 1

When Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah and Jeroboam son of Joash was king of Israel, the word of the Lord came to Hosea son of Beri.

The Lord spoke to Hosea for the first time and said to him, “Go and marry an adulteress, and take in the children born of fornication, because this land is engaged in fornication and has abandoned the Lord.”.

So Hosea went and married Gomer, the daughter of Diraim. The woman became pregnant and gave birth to a son for him.

The Lord said to Hosea, Give him the name Jezreel, because in a little while, I will punish the house of Jehu for killing and shedding blood in Jezreel, and I will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to be destroyed.

On that day, I will break the bow of Israel in the plain of Jezreel.

Gomer became pregnant again and gave birth to a daughter. The Lord said to Hosea, ‘Give her the name Loruhama, for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, nor will I forgive them.’.

But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, so that they may be saved by the Lord their God, and not by bows, swords, wars, horses, and horsemen.

After weaning Luoluhama, Gomer became pregnant and gave birth to a son.

The Lord said, Give him the name Roami, because you are not my people, and I will not be your God.

However, the number of Israel will be like sand on the sea, immeasurable and uncountable. Wherever I said to them, ‘You are not my people, but there I will say to them,’ You are the sons of the living God. ‘.

Judah and Israel will gather together and appoint a leader for themselves to come up from this land, because the day of Jezreel will be a great day.
