2 When Yahweh spoke at the first by Hosea, Yahweh said to Hosea, 'Go, take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of unfaithfulness; for the land commits great adultery against from Yahweh.'
3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.
4 Yahweh said to him, 'Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.
5 It will happen in that day that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.'
6 She conceived again, and bore a daughter. Then he said to him, 'Call her name Lo-Ruhamah{Lo-Ruhamah means 'not loved.'}; for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should in any way pardon them.
