28 Hosea
28-1:1 The word1697 of the LORD3068 that834 came1961 unto413 Hosea,1954 the son1121 of Beeri,882 in the days3117 of Uzziah,5818 Jotham,3147 Ahaz,271 and Hezekiah,3169 kings4428 of Judah,3063 and in the days3117 of Jeroboam3379 the son1121 of Joash,3101 king4428 of Israel.3478
28-1:2 The beginning8462 of the word1696 of the LORD3068 by Hosea.1954 And the LORD3068 said559 to413 Hosea,1954 Go,1980 take3947 unto thee a wife802 of whoredoms2183 and children3206 of whoredoms:2183 for3588 the land776 hath committed great whoredom,2181, 2181 departing from4480, 310 the LORD.3068
28-1:3 So he went1980 and took3947 (853) Gomer1586 the daughter1323 of Diblaim;1691 which conceived,2029 and bore3205 him a son.1121
28-1:4 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 him, Call7121 his name8034 Jezreel;3157 for3588 yet5750 a little4592 while, and I will avenge6485 (853) the blood1818 of Jezreel3157 upon5921 the house1004 of Jehu,3058 and will cause to cease7673 the kingdom4468 of the house1004 of Israel.3478
28-1:5 And it shall come to pass1961 at that1931 day,3117 that I will break7665 (853) the bow7198 of Israel3478 in the valley6010 of Jezreel.3157
28-1:6 And she conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 a daughter.1323 And God said559 unto him, Call7121 her name8034 Lo-ruhamah:3819 for3588 I will no3808 more5750, 3254 have mercy upon7355 (853) the house1004 of Israel;3478 but3588 I will utterly take them away.5375, 5375
28-1:7 But I will have mercy upon7355 the house1004 of Judah,3063 and will save3467 them by the LORD3068 their God,430 and will not3808 save3467 them by bow,7198 nor by sword,2719 nor by battle,4421 by horses,5483 nor by horsemen.6571
28-1:8 Now when she had weaned1580 (853) Lo-ruhamah,3819 she conceived,2029 and bore3205 a son.1121
28-1:9 Then said559 God, Call7121 his name8034 Lo-ammi:3818 for3588 ye859 are not3808 my people,5971 and I595 will not3808 be1961 your God.
28-1:10 Yet the number4557 of the children1121 of Israel3478 shall be1961 as the sand2344 of the sea,3220 which834 cannot3808 be measured4058 nor3808 numbered;5608 and it shall come to pass,1961 that in the place4725 where834 it was said559 unto them, Ye859 are not3808 my people,5971 there it shall be said559 unto them, Ye are the sons1121 of the living2416 God.410
28-1:11 Then shall the children1121 of Judah3063 and the children1121 of Israel3478 be gathered together,6908, 3162 and appoint7760 themselves one259 head,7218 and they shall come up5927 out of4480 the land:776 for3588 great1419 shall be the day3117 of Jezreel.3157

Chapter 2:23 Verses
28 Hosea
28-2:1 Say559 ye unto your brethren,251 Ammi;5971 and to your sisters,269 Ruhamah.7355
28-2:2 Plead7378 with your mother,517 plead:7378 for3588 she1931 is not3808 my wife,802 neither3808 am I595 her husband:376 let her therefore put away5493 her whoredoms2183 out of her sight,4480, 6440 and her adulteries5005 from between4480, 996 her breasts;7699
28-2:3 Lest6435 I strip6584 her naked,6174 and set3322 her as in the day3117 that she was born,3205 and make7760 her as a wilderness,4057 and set7896 her like a dry6723 land,776 and slay4191 her with thirst.6772
28-2:4 And I will not3808 have mercy upon7355 her children;1121 for3588 they1992 be the children1121 of whoredoms.2183
28-2:5 For3588 their mother517 hath played the harlot:2181 she that conceived2029 them hath done shamefully:954 for3588 she said,559 I will go1980 after310 my lovers,157 that give5414 me my bread3899 and my water,4325 my wool6785 and my flax,6593 mine oil8081 and my drink.8250
28-2:6 Therefore,3651 behold,2009 I will hedge up7753 (853) thy way1870 with thorns,5518 and make1443 (853) a wall,1447 that she shall not3808 find4672 her paths.5410
28-2:7 And she shall follow after7291 (853) her lovers,157 but she shall not3808 overtake5381 them; and she shall seek1245 them, but shall not3808 find4672 them: then shall she say,559 I will go1980 and return7725 to413 my first7223 husband;376 for3588 then227 was it better2896 with me than now.4480, 6258
28-2:8 For she1931 did not3808 know3045 that3588 I595 gave5414 her corn,1715 and wine,8492 and oil,3323 and multiplied7235 her silver3701 and gold,2091 which they prepared6213 for Baal.1168
28-2:9 Therefore3651 will I return,7725 and take away3947 my corn1715 in the time6256 thereof, and my wine8492 in the season4150 thereof, and will recover5337 my wool6785 and my flax6593 given to cover3680 (853) her nakedness.6172
28-2:10 And now6258 will I discover1540 (853) her lewdness5040 in the sight5869 of her lovers,157 and none3808, 376 shall deliver5337 her out of mine hand.4480, 3027
28-2:11 I will also cause all3605 her mirth4885 to cease,7673 her feast days,2282 her new moons,2320 and her sabbaths,7676 and all3605 her solemn feasts.4150
28-2:12 And I will destroy8074 her vines1612 and her fig trees,8384 whereof834 she hath said,559 These1992 are my rewards866 that834 my lovers157 have given5414 me: and I will make7760 them a forest,3293 and the beasts2416 of the field7704 shall eat398 them.
28-2:13 And I will visit6485 upon5921 her (853) the days3117 of Baalim,1168 wherein834 she burned incense6999 to them, and she decked5710 herself with her earrings5141 and her jewels,2484 and she went1980 after310 her lovers,157 and forgot7911 me, saith5002 the LORD.3068
28-2:14 Therefore,3651 behold,2009 I595 will allure6601 her, and bring1980 her into the wilderness,4057 and speak1696 comfortably5921, 3820 unto her.
28-2:15 And I will give5414 her (853) her vineyards3754 from thence,4480, 8033 and the valley6010 of Achor5911 for a door6607 of hope:8615 and she shall sing6030 there,8033 as in the days3117 of her youth,5271 and as in the day3117 when she came up5927 out of the land4480, 776 of Egypt.4714
28-2:16 And it shall be1961 at that1931 day,3117 saith5002 the LORD,3068 that thou shalt call7121 me Ishi;376 and shalt call7121 me no3808 more5750 Baali.1180
28-2:17 For I will take away5493 (853) the names8034 of Baalim1168 out of her mouth,4480, 6310 and they shall no3808 more5750 be remembered2142 by their name.8034
28-2:18 And in that1931 day3117 will I make3772 a covenant1285 for them with5973 the beasts2416 of the field,7704 and with5973 the fowls5775 of heaven,8064 and with the creeping things7431 of the ground:127 and I will break7665 the bow7198 and the sword2719 and the battle4421 out of4480 the earth,776 and will make them to lie down7901 safely.983
28-2:19 And I will betroth781 thee unto me forever;5769 yea, I will betroth781 thee unto me in righteousness,6664 and in judgment,4941 and in lovingkindness,2617 and in mercies.7356
28-2:20 I will even betroth781 thee unto me in faithfulness:530 and thou shalt know3045 (853) the LORD.3068
28-2:21 And it shall come to pass1961 in that1931 day,3117 I will hear,6030 saith5002 the LORD,3068 I will hear6030 (853) the heavens,8064 and they1992 shall hear6030 (853) the earth;776
28-2:22 And the earth776 shall hear6030 (853) the corn,1715 and the wine,8492 and the oil;3323 and they1992 shall hear6030 (853) Jezreel.3157
28-2:23 And I will sow2232 her unto me in the earth;776 and I will have mercy upon7355 (853) her that had not3808 obtained mercy;7355 and I will say559 to them which were not3808 my people,5971 Thou859 art my people;5971 and they1931 shall say,559 Thou art my God.430
Hosea 3:
Chapter 3:5 Verses
28 Hosea
28-3:1 Then said559 the LORD3068 unto413 me, Go1980 yet,5750 love157 a woman802 beloved157 of her friend,7453 yet an adulteress,5003 according to the love160 of the LORD3068 toward (853) the children1121 of Israel,3478 who1992 look6437 to413 other312 gods,430 and love157 flagons809 of wine.6025
28-3:2 So I bought3739 her to me for fifteen2568, 6240 pieces of silver,3701 and for a homer2563 of barley,8184 and a half homer3963 of barley:8184
28-3:3 And I said559 unto413 her, Thou shalt abide3427 for me many7227 days;3117 thou shalt not3808 play the harlot,2181 and thou shalt not3808 be1961 for another man:376 so will I589 also1571 be for413 thee.
28-3:4 For3588 the children1121 of Israel3478 shall abide3427 many7227 days3117 without369 a king,4428 and without369 a prince,8269 and without369 a sacrifice,2077 and without369 an image,4676 and without369 an ephod,646 and without teraphim:8655
28-3:5 Afterward310 shall the children1121 of Israel3478 return,7725 and seek1245 (853) the LORD3068 their God,430 and David1732 their king;4428 and shall fear6342, 413 the LORD3068 and his goodness2898 in the latter319 days.3117
Hosea 4:
Chapter 4:19 Verses
28 Hosea
28-4:1 Hear8085 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 ye children1121 of Israel:3478 for3588 the LORD3068 hath a controversy7379 with5973 the inhabitants3427 of the land,776 because3588 there is no369 truth,571 nor369 mercy,2617 nor369 knowledge1847 of God430 in the land.776
28-4:2 By swearing,422 and lying,3584 and killing,7523 and stealing,1589 and committing adultery,5003 they break out,6555 and blood1818 toucheth5060 blood.1818
28-4:3 Therefore5921, 3651 shall the land776 mourn,56 and every one3605 that dwelleth3427 therein shall languish,535 with the beasts2416 of the field,7704 and with the fowls5775 of heaven;8064 yea, the fishes1709 of the sea3220 also1571 shall be taken away.622
28-4:4 Yet389 let no408 man376 strive,7378 nor408 reprove3198 another:376 for thy people5971 are as they that strive7378 with the priest.3548
28-4:5 Therefore shalt thou fall3782 in the day,3117 and the prophet5030 also1571 shall fall3782 with5973 thee in the night,3915 and I will destroy1820 thy mother.517
28-4:6 My people5971 are destroyed1820 for lack4480, 1097 of knowledge:1847 because3588 thou859 hast rejected3988 knowledge,1847 I will also reject3988 thee, that thou shalt be no priest4480, 3547 to me: seeing thou hast forgotten7911 the law8451 of thy God,430 I589 will also1571 forget7911 thy children.1121
28-4:7 As they were increased,7231 so3651 they sinned2398 against me: therefore will I change4171 their glory3519 into shame.7036
28-4:8 They eat up398 the sin2403 of my people,5971 and they set5375 their heart5315 on413 their iniquity.5771
28-4:9 And there shall be,1961 like people,5971 like priest:3548 and I will punish6485, 5921 them for their ways,1870 and reward7725 them their doings.4611
28-4:10 For they shall eat,398 and not3808 have enough:7646 they shall commit whoredom,2181 and shall not3808 increase:6555 because3588 they have left off5800 to take heed8104 (853) to the LORD.3068
28-4:11 Whoredom2184 and wine3196 and new wine8492 take away3947 the heart.3820
28-4:12 My people5971 ask counsel7592 at their stocks,6086 and their staff4731 declareth5046 unto them: for3588 the spirit7307 of whoredoms2183 hath caused them to err,8582 and they have gone a whoring2181 from under4480, 8478 their God.430
28-4:13 They sacrifice2076 upon5921 the tops7218 of the mountains,2022 and burn incense6999 upon5921 the hills,1389 under8478 oaks437 and poplars3839 and elms,424 because3588 the shadow6738 thereof is good:2896 therefore5921, 3651 your daughters1323 shall commit whoredom,2181 and your spouses3618 shall commit adultery.5003
28-4:14 I will not3808 punish6485, 5921 your daughters1323 when3588 they commit whoredom,2181 nor your spouses3618 when3588 they commit adultery:5003 for3588 themselves1992 are separated6504 with5973 whores,2181 and they sacrifice2076 with5973 harlots:6948 therefore the people5971 that doth not3808 understand995 shall fall.3832
28-4:15 Though518 thou,859 Israel,3478 play the harlot,2181 yet let not408 Judah3063 offend;816 and come935 not408 ye unto Gilgal,1537 neither408 go ye up5927 to Beth-aven,1007 nor408 swear,7650 The LORD3068 liveth.2416
28-4:16 For3588 Israel3478 slideth back5637 as a backsliding5637 heifer:6510 now6258 the LORD3068 will feed7462 them as a lamb3532 in a large place.4800
28-4:17 Ephraim669 is joined2266 to idols:6091 let him alone.5117
28-4:18 Their drink5435 is sour:5493 they have committed whoredom continually:2181, 2181 her rulers4043 with shame7036 do love,157 Give3051 ye.
28-4:19 The wind7307 hath bound her up6887, (853) in her wings,3671 and they shall be ashamed954 because of their sacrifices.4480, 2077

28-5:1 Hear8085 ye this,2063 O priests;3548 and hearken,7181 ye house1004 of Israel;3478 and give ye ear,238 O house1004 of the king;4428 for3588 judgment4941 is toward you, because3588 ye have been1961 a snare6341 on Mizpah,4709 and a net7568 spread6566 upon5921 Tabor.8396
28-5:2 And the revolters7846 are profound6009 to make slaughter,7819 though I589 have been a rebuker4148 of them all.3605
28-5:3 I589 know3045 Ephraim,669 and Israel3478 is not3808 hid3582 from4480 me: for3588 now,6258 O Ephraim,669 thou committest whoredom,2181 and Israel3478 is defiled.2930
28-5:4 They will not3808 frame5414 their doings4611 to turn7725 unto413 their God:430 for3588 the spirit7307 of whoredoms2183 is in the midst7130 of them, and they have not3808 known3045 the LORD.3068
28-5:5 And the pride1347 of Israel3478 doth testify6030 to his face:6440 therefore shall Israel3478 and Ephraim669 fall3782 in their iniquity;5771 Judah3063 also1571 shall fall3782 with5973 them.
28-5:6 They shall go1980 with their flocks6629 and with their herds1241 to seek1245 (853) the LORD;3068 but they shall not3808 find4672 him; he hath withdrawn2502 himself from4480 them.
28-5:7 They have dealt treacherously898 against the LORD:3068 for3588 they have begotten3205 strange2114 children:1121 now6258 shall a month2320 devour398 them with854 their portions.2506
28-5:8 Blow8628 ye the cornet7782 in Gibeah,1390 and the trumpet2689 in Ramah:7414 cry aloud7321 at Beth-aven,1007 after310 thee, O Benjamin.1144
28-5:9 Ephraim669 shall be1961 desolate8047 in the day3117 of rebuke:8433 among the tribes7626 of Israel3478 have I made known3045 that which shall surely be.539
28-5:10 The princes8269 of Judah3063 were1961 like them that remove5253 the bound:1366 therefore I will pour out8210 my wrath5678 upon5921 them like water.4325
28-5:11 Ephraim669 is oppressed6231 and broken7533 in judgment,4941 because3588 he willingly2974 walked1980 after310 the commandment.6673
28-5:12 Therefore will I589 be unto Ephraim669 as a moth,6211 and to the house1004 of Judah3063 as rottenness.7538
28-5:13 When Ephraim669 saw7200 (853) his sickness,2483 and Judah3063 saw (853) his wound,4205 then went1980 Ephraim669 to413 the Assyrian,804 and sent7971 to413 king4428 Jareb:3377 yet could3201 he1931 not3808 heal7495 you, nor3808 cure1455, 4480 you of your wound.4205
28-5:14 For3588 I595 will be unto Ephraim669 as a lion,7826 and as a young lion3715 to the house1004 of Judah:3063 I,589 even I,589 will tear2963 and go away;1980 I will take away,5375 and none369 shall rescue5337 him.
28-5:15 I will go1980 and return7725 to413 my place,4725 till5704, 834 they acknowledge their offense,816 and seek1245 my face:6440 in their affliction6862 they will seek me early.7836

Chapter 6:11 Verses
28 Hosea
28-6:1 Come,1980 and let us return7725 unto413 the LORD:3068 for3588 he1931 hath torn,2963 and he will heal7495 us; he hath smitten,5221 and he will bind us up.2280
28-6:2 After two days4480, 3117 will he revive2421 us: in the third7992 day3117 he will raise us up,6965 and we shall live2421 in his sight.6440
28-6:3 Then shall we know,3045 if we follow on7291 to know3045 (853) the LORD:3068 his going forth4161 is prepared3559 as the morning;7837 and he shall come935 unto us as the rain,1653 as the latter4456 and former rain3138 unto the earth.776
28-6:4 O Ephraim,669 what4100 shall I do6213 unto thee? O Judah,3063 what4100 shall I do6213 unto thee? for your goodness2617 is as a morning1242 cloud,6051 and as the early7925 dew2919 it goeth away.1980
28-6:5 Therefore5921, 3651 have I hewed2672 them by the prophets;5030 I have slain2026 them by the words561 of my mouth:6310 and thy judgments4941 are as the light216 that goeth forth.3318
28-6:6 For3588 I desired2654 mercy,2617 and not3808 sacrifice;2077 and the knowledge1847 of God430 more than burnt offerings.4480, 5930
28-6:7 But they1992 like men120 have transgressed5674 the covenant:
