Hosea 1:6-8
Living Bible
6 Soon Gomer had another child—this one a daughter. And God said to Hosea, “Name her Lo-ruhamah (meaning ‘No more mercy’) for I will have no more mercy upon Israel, to forgive her again. 7 But I will have mercy on the tribe of Judah. I will personally free her from her enemies without any help from her armies or her weapons.”[a]
8 After Gomer had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she again conceived and this time gave birth to a son.
