Hosea 1:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² The Lord said to him, “Go, and marry a woman who will be unfaithful to you. She will give you children whose fathers are other men. Do this because people in this country have acted like an unfaithful wife toward the Lord.” ³ So Hosea married Gomer daughter of Diblaim. Gomer became pregnant and gave birth to Hosea’s son.

⁴ The Lord said to Hosea, “Name him Jezreel. This is because soon I will punish the family of Jehu for the people they killed at Jezreel. Then I will put an end to the kingdom of Israel.
