Hosea instructed to
take a prostitute for a wife; she had children |
| 2 |
Charges against her;
no mercy for her children; mercy for God's people |
| 3 |
Israel will return
to God; picture of redemption and final salvation |
| 4 |
Charge against Israel;
idolatry |
| 5 |
Judgment coming on
both kingdoms |
| 6 |
Repent but transgression;
wicked priests |
| 7 |
The Lord would have
healed; but Ephraim was uncovered; fraud; theft |
| 8 |
Enemy will pursue;
sow the wind; reap the whirlwind |
| 9 |
Do not rejoice; played
the harlot against God; no more feast |
| 10 |
Fruit of wicked Israel;
Sow righteousness and receive mercy |
| 11 |
God loved Israel as
a child; Ephraim rebelled |
| 12 |
God's charge against
Judah and Jacob |
| 13 |
I am the only salvation
but they forgot; I will be like a lion |
| 14 |
Return O Israel; I
will heal; let the wise understand |
