3. So Hosea married Gomer daughter of Diblaim. She became pregnant and gave birth to a son for Hosea.
4. The Lord said to Hosea, “Name him Jezreel, because soon I will punish the family of Jehu for the people he killed at Jezreel Valley. Then I will put an end to the kingdom of the nation of Israel.
5. And at that time I will break Israel’s bow at Jezreel Valley.”
6. Then Gomer became pregnant again and gave birth to a daughter. The Lord said to Hosea, “Name her Lo-Ruhamah, because I will not show mercy to the nation of Israel anymore, nor will I forgive them.
7. But I will show mercy to the nation of Judah. I will save them, but I will not use bows or swords or war horses and soldiers to save them. I will save them by my own power.”
