Hosea is the first book of the Minor Prophets in the Old Testament. Written by the prophet Hosea, it delivers a powerful message of God's unending love and faithfulness towards his people, even in the midst of their unfaithfulness and spiritual adultery. The book explores the personal life of Hosea as a metaphor for God's relationship with Israel.
Hosea begins by describing God's command to Hosea to marry a woman named Gomer, who later proves to be unfaithful to him. This serves as a symbol of Israel's unfaithfulness to God, as they have turned away from him to worship idols and commit immoral acts. Despite Gomer's unfaithfulness, Hosea continues to love her and even redeems her, showing the unconditional love and forgiveness that God has for Israel.
The book presents strong warnings to Israel about the consequences of their actions and urges them to repent and return to God. Hosea emphasizes that true worship and loyalty to God is more important than empty rituals and sacrifices. He calls Israel to seek justice, love, and mercy, rather than engaging in oppression and violence.
Hosea portrays God as a loving father who longs to restore his relationship with his children. He promises to heal, reconcile, and bless them if they turn back to him. Through Hosea's words, we see God's patience, compassion, and desire for genuine repentance.
The book also includes prophecies of future restoration and the coming of the Messiah. It speaks of the hope of a renewed covenant between God and his people, where righteousness and faithfulness will prevail.
Overall, the book of Hosea teaches us about God's unfailing love and his call for us to remain faithful to him. It reminds us that despite our own unfaithfulness and shortcomings, God is always ready to forgive and restore our relationship with him.

4:13
to her heart there I shall give her back her Vineyards and make the veil of acre

God Hosea chapter 3 Yahweh said to me go
5:41
again love a woman who loves another man an adulteress and love her as Yahweh
5:47
loves the Israelites although they turn to other gods and love raisin cakes so I bought her for 15 shekels of silver a
5:54
homer of barley and a skin of wine and I said to her you will have to spend a long time time waiting for me without
6:00
playing the and without giving yourself to any man and I will behave in the same way towards you for the
6:06
Israelites will have to spend a long time without king or leader without sacrifice or sacred pillar without fod
6:13
or domestic images but after that the Israelites will return and again seek
6:19
Yahweh their God and David their King and turn trembling to Yahweh for his bounty in the final days
6:29
[Music] Hosea chapter 4 Israelites hear what
6:34
Yahweh says for Yahweh indicts the citizens of the country there is no loyalty no faithful love no knowledge of
6:43
God in the country only perjury and lying murder theft adultery and violence
6:49
Bloodshed after Bloodshed this is why the country is in mourning and all its citizens pining away the wild animals
6:56
also and birds of the sky even the fish in the sea will disappear but let no one
7:02
denounce no one rebuke it is you priest that I denounce priest you will stumble
7:09
in broad daylight and the prophet will stumble with you in the dark and I will make your mother perish my people perish
7:17
for want of knowledge since you yourself have rejected knowledge so I shall
7:22
reject you for my priesthood since you have forgotten the teaching of your God I in my turn shall forget your children
7:29
the more of them there have been the more they have sinned against me they have Bartered their glory for shame they
7:36
feed on the sin of my people they are greedy for their iniquity but as with
7:42
the people so with the priest I shall punish them for their conduct I shall pay them back for their deeds they will
7:49
eat but never be satisfied they will play the but not grow more prolific since they have deserted Yahweh
7:56
to give themselves up to whing old wine and new wine Addle my people's wits they
8:01
consult their block of wood and their stick explains what they should do for an urge to go whoring has led them
8:08
astray and whoring they go and desert their God they offer sacrifice on the mountain tops they burn incense on the
8:15
Hills under Oak and popler and terbin for Pleasant is their shade so although
8:21
your daughters play the and your daughters-in-law commit adultery I shall not punish your daughters for playing
8:27
the nor your daughters-in-law for committing ad adultery when the men themselves are wandering off with
8:32

8:39
Israel play the there is no need for Judah to sin too do not go to gilgal

shall pour my wrath out on them like a flood Ephraim is oppressed crushed by
10:42

10:47
be like ringworm for Ephraim and like Gang Green for the house of Judah once Ephraim realized that he was sick in
10:54
Judah that he had an ulcer Ephraim then went to Assyria he sent Messengers to the great king but he has no power to
11:01
cure you or to heal you of your SAR for I shall be like a lion to Ephraim like a young lion to the house of Judah I
11:09

11:56
with you Ephraim what am I to do do with you Judah for your love is like Morning

12:16
what pleases me not sacrifice knowledge of God not burnt offerings but they have
12:22
broken the Covenant at Adam there they have betrayed me Gilead is a city of
12:28
evildoers full of bloody Footprints like so many robbers in Ambush a gang of
12:34
priests commits murder on the road to sheam what Infamous Behavior at bethl I
12:39

12:46
you too Judah a harvest is in store when I restore my people's
12:56
fortunes Hosea chapter 7 whenever I would heal
13:01
Israel I am confronted by the guilt of Ephraim and the evil doings of Samaria for deceit is their principle of
13:08
behavior the thief breaks into the house Marauders raid in the open and they
13:13
never pause to consider that I remember all their wicked deeds and now their own Deeds hem them in and stare me in the
13:19
face they amus the king with their wickedness and the chief men with their lies they are all adulterers hot as an
13:27
oven which the baker need not Stoke from the time he has needed the dough until it rises at the holiday for our King the
13:34
ministers become inflamed with wine while he accepts the homage of people who laugh at him their hearts are like
13:41
an oven as they plot all night their passion Slumbers then in the morning it bursts into flame yes all of them as hot
13:49
as ovens they consume their rulers all their kings have fallen thus not one of
13:55
them has ever called on me Ephraim mixes with the nation Ephraim is a half baked cake foreigners
14:03
have eaten his strength away but he is unconscious of it even his hair is turning gray but he is unconscious of it
14:10
Israel's arrogance is his own accuser but they do not come back to Yahweh their God or seek Him despite all this
14:18
Ephraim is like a silly witless pigeon calling on Egypt turning to Assyria
14:24
wherever they turn I shall spread my net over them I shall bring them down down like the birds of the sky I shall punish
14:32
them for their perversity woe to them for having fled from me ruin seiz them
14:37

14:52
still rebelling against me though I supported and gave strength to their arms they plan how to hurt me they turn
14:59
to what does not exist they are like a faulty bow their leaders will fall by
15:05
the sword because of their arrogant talk how they will be laughed at in
15:14
Egypt Hosea chapter 8 put the trumpet to your
15:19
lips like an eagle disaster is swooping on yahweh's home because they have
15:25
violated my Covenant and been unfaithful to my law in vain will they cry my God in vain we
15:33
Israel know you Israel has rejected the good the enemy will pursue them they
15:40
have set up Kings but without my consent and appointed princes but without my
15:46
knowledge with their silver and gold they have made themselves Idols but only
15:52

15:59

16:13
wind they will reap the Whirlwind stock without ear it will never yield flour or
16:19
if it does foreigners will swallow it Israel has himself been swallowed now
16:25
they are lost among the Nations like something no one wants for having made approaches to Assyria like a wild donkey
16:32
all alone Ephraim has rented lovers and because he has rented them from the Nations I am now going to round them up
16:40
soon they will feel the weight of the king of princes Ephraim keeps building altars for his sins these very altars
16:47
are themselves a sin however much of my law I write for him Ephraim regards it
16:53
as alien to him they offer sacrifices to me and eat the meat they do not win
16:59
yahweh's favor on the contrary he will remember their guilt and punish their sins they will have to go back to Egypt
17:07
Israel has forgotten his maker and has built palaces while Judah keeps on building fortified towns but I shall
17:14
send fire down on his cities to devour their
17:22
citadels Hosea chapter 9 no merrymaking Israel
17:28

17:36
prostitution on every threshing floor the threshing floor and wine press will not feed them they will be disappointed
17:43
of new wine no more will they live in yahweh's country Ephraim will have to go
17:48
back to Egypt and eat polluted food in Assyria no more will they pour Libations
17:54
of wine to Yahweh and their sacrifices will not win his favor but will be like funeral fair for them whoever eats them
18:01
will be polluted for their food will be for themselves alone not being offered in yahweh's home what will you do on the
18:08
solemn feast day on the day of yahweh's Festival what a scene of Devastation
18:14

18:26
Retribution are here Israel knows it the prophet is mad and the inspired man a
18:32
fool great has been your guilt all the greater than the hostility The Watchman
18:38

18:45
God there is enmity towards him they have become deeply corrupt as in the days of gibba he will remember their
18:52
guilt he will punish their sins it was like finding grapes in the desert when I found Israel like seeing early fruit on
18:59
a fig tree when I saw your ancestors but when they reached Balor they devoted themselves to shame and became as
19:06
loathsome as the thing they loved the glory of Ephraim will fly away like a bird no giving birth no pregnancy no
19:14
conceiving if they rear their children I shall take them away before they grow up
19:20
woe to them indeed when I leave them Ephraim looked to me like Tyre planted
19:26
in a meadow so Ephraim will present his children to the slaughterer give them
19:31
Yahweh what are you to give give them WS that miscar and dried up breasts their
19:37

20:03
God will cast them off and they will become Wanderers among the
20:11
Nations Hosea chapter 10 Israel was a luxuriant Vine yielding plenty of fruit
20:19
the more his fruit increased the more altars he built the Richer his land became the Richer he made the sacred
20:27
pillars theirs is a divided heart now they will have to pay for it he himself
20:33
will hack down their altars and wreck their sacred pillars then they will say
20:38
we have no King because we have not feared Yahweh but what could the king do for us speeches are made oath sworn to
20:46

20:53
fields Samaria citizens will tremble for the calf of bethaven the people there will will mourn for it so Will its Idol
21:00
priests as they exalt in its Glory once it has been carried away it will be carried off to Assyria as tribute to the
21:07
great king Ephraim will reap the shame and Israel blush for his intentions
21:14
Samaria has had her day her King is like a straw Drifting On The Water the high
21:20
places of aen the sin of Israel will be destroyed thorns and thistles will grow
21:26

21:38
their stand and will not war overtake the guilty at gibba I am coming to
21:44

23:06
taught Ephraim to walk I myself took them by the arm but they did not know that I was the one caring for them that
23:13
I was leading them with human ties with leading strings of love that with them I
23:19
was like someone lifting an infant to his cheek and that I bent down to feed him he will not have to go back to Egypt
23:25
Assyria will be his King instead since he has refused to come back to me the
23:31
sword will rage through his cities destroying the bars of his Gates devouring them because of their plots my
23:38
people are bent on disregarding me if they are summoned to come up not one of them makes a move Ephraim how could I
23:46

23:53
treat you like zeboim my heart within me is overwhelmed fever grips my inmost
23:59
being I will not give reain to my Fierce anger I will not destroy Ephraim again
24:05

24:17
children will come fluttering from the West fluttering like sparrows from Egypt like pigeons from Assyria and I shall
24:24
settle them in their homes declares Yahweh
24:32
Hosea chapter 12 Ephraim besieges me with lying the house of Israel with
24:39
duplicity but Judah still is on God's side he is faithful to the Holy One
24:46
Ephraim feeds himself on wind all day he chases the wind from the East he heaps
24:51
up cheating and violence they make a treaty with Assyria at the same time sending oil to Egypt yah has a case
24:59
against Judah he will punish Jacob as his conduct merits he will repay him as
25:04
his deeds deserve in the very womb he overreached his brother in maturity he
25:10
wrestled against God he wrestled with the angel and beat him he wept and
25:15
pleaded with him he met him at bethl and the God spoke to us yes Yahweh God Sabo
25:21

25:27
loyalty and always put your trust in your God Merchants use fraudulent scales
25:33
to defraud is his Delight how rich I have become says Ephraim I have made a
25:39
fortune but of all his gains he will keep nothing because of the sin of which he is guilty but I have been Yahweh your
25:47
God since your days in Egypt and will make you live in tense again as in the days of meeting I will speak through
25:53
prophets I will give Vision after vision and through the ministry of prophets will speak speak in Parables is Gilead a
26:00
sink of iniquity yes they are a worthless lot at gilgal they sacrific to
26:07
bulls that is why their altars are like heaps of stones in a plowed field Jacob
26:12
fled to the countryside of Aram Israel's slave to win a wife to win a wife he
26:18
looked after Sheep by a prophet Yahweh brought Israel out of Egypt and by a
26:23
prophet Israel was preserved Ephraim gave bitter provocation Yahweh will
26:28
bring his Bloodshed down on him his Lord will repay him for his
26:37
insult Hosea chapter 13 when Ephraim used to
26:43
speak all trembled he was a power in Israel but once he had incurred guilt
26:48
with ball he died and now they compound their sins by casting images for
26:53
themselves out of their silver Idols of their own invention the work of Craftsmen all of it sacrifice to them
27:02
they say men bestow kisses to calves that is why they will be like Morning
27:07
Mist like the Dew that quickly disappears like the chaff whirl from the threshing floor like smoke escaping
27:14
through the window but I have been Yahweh your God since your days in Egypt when you knew no God but me since you
27:21
had no one else to save you I cared for you in the desert in the land of
27:26
dreadful drought I pastured them and they were satisfied once satisfied their
27:33
hearts grew proud and therefore they forgot me so now I shall be like a lion
27:38
to them like a leopard I shall lurk beside the road like a bear robbed of her Cubs I shall meet them and ren the
27:44
membrane of their heart and they're like a lioness I shall eat them like a wild beast tear them to shreds Israel you
27:52
have destroyed yourself though in me lies your help your king where is he now
27:58

horses anymore or say our God to our own handiwork for you are the one in whom
29:38
orphans find compassion I shall cure them of their disloyalty I shall love
29:44
them with all my heart for my anger has turned away from them I shall fall like
29:49

29:56

30:03
grow wheat again they will make the vine flourish their wine will be as famous as
30:08
lebanon's what has Ephraim to do with Idols anymore when I hear him and watch over him I am like an evergreen Cyprus
30:17

30:22

30:28
