Hosea 1

Gen Z: Hosea 1

1The word from the Lord hit up Hosea, son of Beeri, back in the days of those kings like Uzziah and Hezekiah, and Jeroboam too. Major vibes.

2So, the Lord told Hosea, "Yo, go get yourself a wifey from the streets and some kids too, 'cause the land is wildin' and left me hanging."

3He rolled out and snagged Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim; she got pregnant and popped out a son.

4God was like, "Name him Jezreel, 'cause soon I’m gonna get back at Jehu’s fam for the bloodshed, and the kingdom of Israel is donezo."

5On that day, I’m breaking Israel’s bow in the Jezreel valley, no cap.

6She got pregnant again and had a daughter. God told him, "Name her Lo–ruhamah, 'cause I ain't showing mercy to Israel anymore; they’re out."

7But I’ll still show mercy to Judah, saving them through their God, not with weapons or battles, just straight up vibes.

8Once she was done nursing Lo–ruhamah, she got pregnant again and had a son.

9Then God said, "Name him Lo–ammi, 'cause you’re not my peeps, and I’m not your God."

10But the kids of Israel will be as countless as the sand on the beach, and where it was said, "You’re not my people," it’ll flip to "You’re the sons of the living God."

11Then Judah and Israel's kids will link up, pick one leader, and bounce outta the land; it’s gonna be a lit day for Jezreel.

KJV: Hosea 1

1The 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.

2The 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.

3So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son.

4And 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.

5And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.

6And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Lo–ruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.

7But 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.

8Now when she had weaned Lo–ruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son.

9Then said God, Call his name Lo–ammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.

10Yet 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.

11Then 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.
