(A)Слово Господне, което биде към Осия, син Беериев, в дните на иудейските царе Озия, Иоатама, Ахаза, Езекия, и в дните на израилския цар Иеровоама, син Иоасов.

(B)Начало на словото Господне към Осия. Рече Господ на Осия: „иди, вземи си жена блудница и деца от блудство; защото твърде много блудствува тая земя, след като отстъпи от Господа“.

И отиде, та взе Гомер, дъщеря на Дивлаима; и тя зачена и му роди син.

(C)И Господ му рече: „наречи му името Изреел, защото още малко ще се мине, и Аз ще отмъстя на дома Ииуев за кръвта, пролята в Изреел и ще прекратя царството на дома Израилев;

(D)в оня ден ще съкруша лъка Израилев в долина Изреел“.

И зачена пак и роди дъщеря, и Той му рече: „наречи ѝ името Лорухама[a], защото Аз няма вече да помилувам дома Израилев, та да им прощавам.

(E)А дома Иудин ще помилувам и ще ги спася чрез техния Господ Бог, ще ги спася не с лък, нито с меч, нито с война, нито с коне и конници“.

И, като откърми Непомилувана, тя зачена и роди син.

(F)И рече Той: „наречи му името Лоами[b], защото вие не сте Мой народ, и Аз няма да бъда ваш (Бог).

10 (G)Но броят на синовете Израилеви ще бъде като морския пясък, който не може нито да се измери, нито да се изброи; и там, дето им говореха: вие сте не Мой народ, ще им казват: вие сте синове на Бога Живий.

11 (H)И ще се съберат синовете Иудини и синовете Израилеви наедно и ще си поставят един главатар и ще излязат из земята на преселението, защото велик е денят на Изрееля!

  1. 1:6 „Непомилувана“.
  2. 1:9 „Не Мой народ“.

Господнето слово, което дойде към Осия, син на Веирия, в дните на Юдовите царе Озия, Иотама, Ахаза, и Езекия, и в дните на Израилевия цар Еровоама, син на Иоаса.

Когато Господ почна да говори чрез Осия, той каза на Осия: Иди, вземи си блудна жена, и добий чада от булдство; защото земята с многото си блудстване се отклони от Господа. 3 И тъй, той отиде та взе Гомер, дъщеря на Девлаима, която зачна и му роди син.

И Господ му рече: Наречи го Иезраел (Т.е., Бог е посеял.); защото още малко и ще въздам на дома на Ииуя за крвъта, която проля на Иезраела, и ще туря край на царството на Израилевия дом.

И в оня ден ще строша Израилевия лък в долината на Иезраела.

И тя пак зачна и роди дъщеря. И Господ му рече: Наречи я Ло-рухама (Т.е., Не придобила милост.); защото няма вече да покажа милост към Израилевия дом, и никак няма да им простя.

А към Юдовия дом ще покажа милост, и ще ги спася чрез Господа техния Бог, и няма да ги спася с лък, с меч, или с бой, с коне или с конници.

А като отби Ло-рухама, зачна и роди син.

И Господ рече: Наречи го Ло-аммий (Т.е., Не люде мои.); защото вие не сте мои люде, и аз не ща бъда ваш Бог.

10 Но все пак числото на Израиляните ще бъде като морския пясък, който не може да се претегли, нито да се изброи; и вместо онова, което им се каза, че: Не сте мои люде, ще им се рече: Вий сте чада на живия Бог.

11 Тогава Юдейците и Израиляните ще се съберат заедно, та ще си поставят един началник, и ще възлязат от земята; защото велик ще бъде денят на Иезраела.

Hoseaʼs vrouw en kinderen

Hosea, de zoon van Beëri, ontving verscheidene boodschappen van de Here. Dat was in de tijd dat de koningen Uzzia, Jotham, Achaz en Jehiskiaover Juda regeerden en dat koning Jerobeam, de zoon van Joas, over Israël regeerde.

Dit is de eerste boodschap van de Here.

De Here zei tegen Hosea: ‘Trouw met een vrouw die prostituee is en kinderen heeft die door andere mannen verwekt zijn. Dit zal een voorbeeld zijn van de manier waarop mijn volk Mij ontrouw is geweest. Want het heeft openlijk overspel gepleegd door afgoden te vereren.’ Toen trouwde Hosea met Gomer, de dochter van Diblaïm. Zij raakte in verwachting en schonk het leven aan een zoon. De Here zei: ‘Noem het kind Jizreël, want het duurt niet lang meer of Ik zal in het dal van Jizreël wraaknemen op Jehuʼs koningshuis voor de moorden die Jehu heeft begaan. Ja, Ik zal zelfs een einde maken aan de positie van Israël als onafhankelijk koninkrijk. In het dal van Jizreël zal Israël een verpletterende nederlaag lijden.’

Gomer raakte opnieuw in verwachting en deze keer was het een dochter. God zei tegen Hosea: ‘Noem haar Lo-Ruchama (Geen medelijden meer), want Ik zal geen medelijden meer hebben met Israël of haar weer vergeven. Maar Ik zal Mij wél het lot aantrekken van het volk van Juda. Ik, die haar God ben, zal haar verlossen van haar vijanden, zonder hulp van haar troepen of wapens.’ Toen Gomer Lo-Ruchama niet meer zelf voedde, werd zij voor de derde keer zwanger en bracht een zoon ter wereld. God zei: ‘Geef hem de naam Lo-Ammi (Niet mijn volk), want Israël is niet van Mij en Ik ben niet haar God. 10 Toch zal eens de tijd komen waarin Israël zal uitgroeien tot een groot volk. Er zullen meer mensen zijn dan iemand ooit kan tellen, zoveel als het zand aan het strand! Op de plaats waar gezegd werd: “U bent niet mijn volk,” zal Ik dan zeggen: “U bent mijn kinderen, kinderen van de levende God.” 11 Dan zullen het volk van Juda en dat van Israël zich verenigen en één leider over zich aanstellen. Samen zullen zij terugkeren uit ballingschap. Wat zal dat een grandioze dag zijn, als God zijn volk weer zal uitzaaien op de vruchtbare grond van hun eigen land!’

12 O Jizreël, geef uw broers en zusters een nieuwe naam. Noem uw broers nu Ammi (Mijn volk) en uw zusters Ruchama (Medelijden).

The word of the Lord that came(A) to Hosea son of Beeri during the reigns of Uzziah,(B) Jotham,(C) Ahaz(D) and Hezekiah,(E) kings of Judah,(F) and during the reign of Jeroboam(G) son of Jehoash[a] king of Israel:(H)

Hosea’s Wife and Children

When the Lord began to speak through Hosea, the Lord said to him, “Go, marry a promiscuous(I) woman and have children with her, for like an adulterous wife this land is guilty of unfaithfulness(J) to the Lord.” So he married Gomer(K) daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

Then the Lord said to Hosea, “Call him Jezreel,(L) because I will soon punish the house of Jehu for the massacre at Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of Israel. In that day I will break Israel’s bow in the Valley of Jezreel.(M)

Gomer(N) conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. Then the Lord said to Hosea, “Call her Lo-Ruhamah (which means “not loved”),(O) for I will no longer show love to Israel,(P) that I should at all forgive them. Yet I will show love to Judah; and I will save them—not by bow,(Q) sword or battle, or by horses and horsemen, but I, the Lord their God,(R) will save them.”

After she had weaned Lo-Ruhamah,(S) Gomer had another son. Then the Lord said, “Call him Lo-Ammi (which means “not my people”), for you are not my people, and I am not your God.[b](T)

10 “Yet the Israelites will be like the sand on the seashore, which cannot be measured or counted.(U) In the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ they will be called ‘children of the living God.’(V) 11 The people of Judah and the people of Israel will come together;(W) they will appoint one leader(X) and will come up out of the land,(Y) for great will be the day of Jezreel.[c](Z)

  2. Hosea 1:9 Or your I am
  3. Hosea 1:11 In Hebrew texts 1:10,11 is numbered 2:1,2.

The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

The beginning of the word of the Lord by Hosea. And the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the Lord.

So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son.

And the Lord said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.

And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel, in the valley of Jezreel.

And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.

But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by the Lord their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.

Now when she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son.

Then said God, Call his name Loammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.

10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.

11 Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
