Hosea 1:2-9
New American Standard Bible
2 When the Lord first spoke through Hosea, the Lord said to Hosea, “(A)Go, take for yourself a wife [a]inclined to infidelity, and children of infidelity; for (B)the land commits flagrant infidelity, [b]abandoning the Lord.” 3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and (C)bore him a son. 4 And the Lord said to him, “Name him (D)Jezreel; for in just a little while (E)I will [c]punish the house of Jehu for the bloodshed of Jezreel, and (F)I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. 5 On that day I will (G)break the bow of Israel in the (H)Valley of Jezreel.”
6 Then she conceived again and gave birth to a daughter. And [d]the Lord said to him, “Name her [e]Lo-ruhamah, for I will no longer (I)take pity on the house of Israel, that I would ever forgive them. 7 But I will take (J)pity on the house of Judah and (K)save them by the Lord their God, and will not save them by (L)bow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”
8 When she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived and gave birth to a son. 9 And [f]the Lord said, “Name him [g]Lo-ammi, because you are not My people, and I am not [h]your God.”

Revised Standard Version
The Family of Hosea
2 When the Lord first spoke through Hose′a, the Lord said to Hose′a, “Go, take to yourself a wife of harlotry and have children of harlotry, for the land commits great harlotry by forsaking the Lord.” 3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Dibla′im, and she conceived and bore him a son.
4 And the Lord said to him, “Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will punish the house of Jehu for the blood of Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel. 5 And on that day, I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.”
6 She conceived again and bore a daughter. And the Lord said to him, “Call her name Not pitied, for I will no more have pity on the house of Israel, to forgive them at all. 7 But I will have pity on the house of Judah, and I will deliver them by the Lord their God; I will not deliver them by bow, nor by sword, nor by war, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.”
8 When she had weaned Not pitied, she conceived and bore a son. 9 And the Lord said, “Call his name Not my people, for you are not my people and I am not your God.”[a]
