Hosea’s Marriage and Children
2 When the Lord first spoke to Hosea, he said this to him:
Go and marry a woman of promiscuity,(A)
and have children of promiscuity,
for the land is committing blatant acts of promiscuity
by abandoning the Lord.
3 So he went and married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.(B) 4 Then the Lord said to him:
Name him Jezreel,[a](C) for in a little while
I will bring the bloodshed of Jezreel(D)
on the house of Jehu(E)
and put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.
