Hosea 2:1 (NIV) New International Version

1 "Say of your brothers,`My people', and of your sisters,`My loved one'.
2 "Rebuke your mother, rebuke her, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her remove the adulterous look from her face and the unfaithfulness from between her breasts.
3 Otherwise I will strip her naked and make her as bare as on the day she was born; I will make her like a desert, turn her into a parched land, and slay her with thirst.
4 I will not show my love to her children, because they are the children of adultery.
5 Their mother has been unfaithful and has conceived them in disgrace. She said,`I will go after my lovers, who give me my food and my water, my wool and my linen, my oil and my drink.'
6 Therefore I will block her path with thornbushes; I will wall her in so that she cannot find her way.
7 She will chase after her lovers but not catch them; she will look for them but not find them. Then she will say,`I will go back to my husband as at first, for then I was better off than now.'
8 She has not acknowledged that I was the one who gave her the grain, the new wine and oil, who lavished on her the silver and gold--which they used for Baal.
9 "Therefore I will take away my grain when it ripens, and my new wine when it is ready. I will take back my wool and my linen, intended to cover her nakedness.
10 So now I will expose her lewdness before the eyes of her lovers; no-one will take her out of my hands.
11 I will stop all her celebrations: her yearly festivals, her New Moons, her Sabbath days--all her appointed feasts.
12 I will ruin her vines and her fig-trees, which she said were her pay from her lovers; I will make them a thicket, and wild animals will devour them.
13 I will punish her for the days she burned incense to the Baals; she decked herself with rings and jewellery, and went after her lovers, but me she forgot," declares the LORD.
14 "Therefore I am now going to allure her; I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her.
15 There I will give her back her vineyards, and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. There she will sing as in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt.
16 "In that day," declares the LORD, "you will call me`my husband'; you will no longer call me`my master'.
17 I will remove the names of the Baals from her lips; no longer will their names be invoked.
18 In that day I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air and the creatures that move along the ground. Bow and sword and battle I will abolish from the land, so that all may lie down in safety.
19 I will betroth you to me for ever; I will betroth you in righteousness and justice, in love and compassion.
20 I will betroth you in faithfulness, and you will acknowledge the LORD.
21 "In that day I will respond," declares the LORD--"I will respond to the skies, and they will respond to the earth;
22 and the earth will respond to the grain, the new wine and oil, and they will respond to Jezreel.
23 I will plant her for myself in the land; I will show my love to the one I called`Not my loved one'. I will say to those called`Not my people',`You are my people'; and they will say,`You are my God.'"
1 Say H559 ye unto your brethren H251 , Ammi H5971 ; and to your sisters H269 , Ruhamah H7355 .
2 Plead H7378 with your mother H517 , plead H7378 : for H3588 CONJ she H1931 PPRO-3FS is not H3808 NADV my wife H802 CFS-1MS , neither H3808 NADV am I H595 W-PPRO-1MS her husband H376 : let her therefore put away H5493 her whoredoms H2183 out of her sight H6440 , and her adulteries H5005 from between H996 her breasts H7699 ;
3 Lest H6435 CONJ I strip H6584 her naked H6174 , and set H3322 her as in the day H3117 that she was born H3205 , and make H7760 her as a wilderness H4057 , and set H7896 her like a dry H6723 NFS land H776 K-CFS , and slay H4191 her with thirst H6772 .
4 And I will not H3808 NADV have mercy upon H7355 her children H1121 CMP-3FS ; for H3588 CONJ they H1992 be the children H1121 CMP of whoredoms H2183 .
5 For H3588 CONJ their mother H517 hath played the harlot H2181 : she that conceived H2029 them hath done shamefully H954 : for H3588 CONJ she said H559 VQQ3FS , I will go H1980 after H310 PREP my lovers H157 , that give H5414 me my bread H3899 and my water H4325 , my wool H6785 and my flax H6593 , mine oil H8081 and my drink H8250 .
6 Therefore H3651 L-ADV , behold H2009 , I will hedge up H7753 thy way H1870 with thorns H5518 , and make H1443 a wall H1447 , that she shall not H3808 NADV find H4672 her paths H5410 .
7 And she shall follow after H7291 her lovers H157 , but she shall not H3808 W-NPAR overtake H5381 them ; and she shall seek H1245 them , but shall not H3808 W-NPAR find H4672 them : then shall she say H559 , I will go H1980 and return H7725 to H413 PREP my first H7223 husband H376 ; for H3588 CONJ then H227 ADV was it better H2896 AMS with me than now H6258 .
8 For she H1931 did not H3808 NADV know H3045 that H3588 CONJ I H595 PPRO-1MS gave H5414 VQQ1MS her corn H1715 , and wine H8492 , and oil H3323 , and multiplied H7235 her silver H3701 W-CMS and gold H2091 , which they prepared H6213 VQQ3MP for Baal H1168 .
9 Therefore H3651 L-ADV will I return H7725 VQY1MS , and take away H3947 my corn H1715 in the time H6256 B-CFS-3MS thereof , and my wine H8492 in the season H4150 thereof , and will recover H5337 my wool H6785 and my flax H6593 given to cover H3680 her nakedness H6172 .
10 And now H6258 W-ADV will I discover H1540 her lewdness H5040 in the sight H5869 of her lovers H157 , and none H3808 ADV shall deliver H5337 her out of mine hand H3027 .
11 I will also cause all H3605 NMS her mirth H4885 to cease H7673 , her feast days H2282 , her new moons H2320 , and her sabbaths H7676 , and all H3605 NMS her solemn feasts H4150 .
12 And I will destroy H8074 her vines H1612 and her fig trees H8384 , whereof H834 RPRO she hath said H559 VQQ3FS , These H1992 PPRO-3MP are my rewards H866 that H834 RPRO my lovers H157 have given H5414 me : and I will make H7760 them a forest H3293 , and the beasts H2416 CFS of the field H7704 D-NMS shall eat H398 them .
13 And I will visit H6485 upon H5921 PREP-3FS her the days H3117 CMP of Baalim H1168 , wherein H834 RPRO she burned incense H6999 to them , and she decked H5710 herself with her earrings H5141 and her jewels H2484 , and she went H1980 W-VQQ3FS after H310 PREP her lovers H157 , and forgot H7911 me , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
14 Therefore H3651 L-ADV , behold H2009 IJEC , I H595 PPRO-1MS will allure H6601 her , and bring H1980 her into the wilderness H4057 D-NMS , and speak H1696 comfortably H3820 unto her .
15 And I will give H5414 her her vineyards H3754 from thence H8033 M-ADV , and the valley H6010 CMS of Achor H5911 for a door H6607 of hope H8615 NFS : and she shall sing H6030 there H8033 , as in the days H3117 K-CMP of her youth H5271 , and as in the day H3117 when she came up H5927 out of the land H776 of Egypt H4714 .
16 And it shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS at that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS , that thou shalt call H7121 me Ishi H376 ; and shalt call H7121 me no H3808 W-NPAR more H5750 ADV Baali H1180 .
17 For I will take away H5493 the names H8034 of Baalim H1168 out of her mouth H6310 , and they shall no H3808 W-NPAR more H5750 ADV be remembered H2142 by their name H8034 .
18 And in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS will I make H3772 a covenant H1285 NFS for them with H5973 PREP the beasts H2416 CFS of the field H7704 D-NMS , and with H5973 the fowls H5775 NMS of heaven H8064 D-NMD , and with the creeping things H7431 of the ground H127 D-NFS : and I will break H7665 the bow H7198 and the sword H2719 and the battle H4421 out of H4480 PREP the earth H776 D-GFS , and will make them to lie down H7901 safely H983 .
19 And I will betroth H781 thee unto me forever H5769 L-NMS ; yea , I will betroth H781 thee unto me in righteousness H6664 , and in judgment H4941 , and in lovingkindness H2617 , and in mercies H7356 .
20 I will even betroth H781 thee unto me in faithfulness H530 : and thou shalt know H3045 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
21 And it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS in that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS , I will hear H6030 VQY1MS , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS , I will hear H6030 VQY1MS the heavens H8064 D-AMP , and they H1992 W-PPRO-3MP shall hear H6030 VQY3MP the earth H776 D-GFS ;
22 And the earth H776 WD-GFS shall hear H6030 the corn H1715 , and the wine H8492 , and the oil H3323 ; and they H1992 W-PPRO-3MP shall hear H6030 VQY3MP Jezreel H3157 .
23 And I will sow H2232 her unto me in the earth H776 B-NFS ; and I will have mercy upon H7355 her that had not H3808 NADV obtained mercy H7355 ; and I will say H559 W-VQQ1MS to them which were not H3808 ADV my people H5971 , Thou H859 PPRO-2MS art my people H5971 ; and they H1931 W-PPRO-3MS shall say H559 VQY3MS , Thou art my God H430 CMP-1MS .
