Chapter 1

1

THE Word of Yahuah that came unto Husha, the son of Be'eriy, in the days of Uzziyahu, Yotham, Achaz, and Yechizqiyahu, kings of Yahudah, and in the days of Yarov'am the son of Yo'ash, king of Yashar'el.

2

The beginning of the Word of Yahuah by Husha. And Yahuah said to Husha, Go, take unto you a woman of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land has committed great whoredom, departing from Yahuah.

3

So he went and took Gimer the daughter of Divlayim; which conceived, and bore him a son.

4

And Yahuah said unto him, Call his name Yizre'el; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Yizre'el upon the house of Yahu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Yashar'el.

5

And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Yashar'el in the valley of Yizre'el.

6

And she conceived again, and bore a daughter. And Elohiym said unto him, Call her name Lo Ruchamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Yashar'el; but I will utterly take them away.

7

But I will have mercy upon the house of Yahudah, and will save them by Yahuah Elohayhem, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.

8

Now when she had weaned Lo Ruchamah, she conceived, and bore a son.

9

Then said Elohiym, Call his name Lo Ammiy: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your Elohiym.

10

Yet the number of the children of Yashar'el 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 El.

11

Then shall the children of Yahudah and the children of Yashar'el be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Yizre'el.
