Hosea:1:2 @ When the LORD first spoke through Hose'a, the LORD said to Hose'a, "Go, take to yourself a wife of harlotry and have children of harlotry, for the land commits great harlotry by forsaking the LORD."
rsv@Hosea:1:3 @ So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Dibla'im, and she conceived and bore him a son.
rsv@Hosea:1:10 @ Yet the number of the people of Israel shall be like the sand of the sea, which can be neither measured nor numbered; and in the place where it was said to them, "You are not my people," it shall be said to them, "Sons of the living God."
rsv@Hosea:1:11 @ And the people of Judah and the people of Israel shall be gathered together, and they shall appoint for themselves one head; and they shall go up from the land, for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
rsv@Hosea:2:3 @ lest I strip her naked and make her as in the day she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a parched land, and slay her with thirst.
rsv@Hosea:2:5 @ For their mother has played the harlot; she that conceived them has acted shamefully. For she said, `I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.'
rsv@Hosea:2:8 @ And she did not know that it was I who gave her the grain, the wine, and the oil, and who lavished upon her silver and gold which they used for Ba'al.
rsv@Hosea:2:9 @ Therefore I will take back my grain in its time, and my wine in its season; and I will take away my wool and my flax, which were to cover her nakedness.
rsv@Hosea:2:12 @ And I will lay waste her vines and her fig trees, of which she said, `These are my hire, which my lovers have given me.' I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall devour them.
rsv@Hosea:2:15 @ And there I will give her her vineyards, and make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. And there she shall answer as in the days of her youth, as at the time when she came out of the land of Egypt.
rsv@Hosea:2:18 @ And I will make for you a covenant on that day with the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the creeping things of the ground; and I will abolish the bow, the sword, and war from the land; and I will make you lie down in safety.
rsv@Hosea:2:23 @ and I will sow him for myself in the land. And I will have pity on Not pitied, and I will say to Not my people, `You are my people'; and he shall say `Thou art my God.'"
rsv@Hosea:3:3 @ And I said to her, "You must dwell as mine for many days; you shall not play the harlot, or belong to another man; so will I also be to you."
rsv@Hosea:3:4 @ For the children of Israel shall dwell many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or pillar, without ephod or teraphim.
rsv@Hosea:3:5 @ Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and they shall come in fear to the LORD and to his goodness in the latter days.
rsv@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of the LORD, O people of Israel; for the LORD has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land. There is no faithfulness or kindness, and no knowledge of God in the land;
rsv@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it languish, and also the beasts of the field, and the birds of the air; and even the fish of the sea are taken away.
rsv@Hosea:4:6 @ My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.
rsv@Hosea:4:10 @ They shall eat, but not be satisfied; they shall play the harlot, but not multiply; because they have forsaken the LORD to cherish harlotry.
rsv@Hosea:4:12 @ My people inquire of a thing of wood, and their staff gives them oracles. For a spirit of harlotry has led them astray, and they have left their God to play the harlot.
rsv@Hosea:4:13 @ They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains, and make offerings upon the hills, under oak, poplar, and terebinth, because their shade is good. Therefore your daughters play the harlot, and your brides commit adultery.
rsv@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not punish your daughters when they play the harlot, nor your brides when they commit adultery; for the men themselves go aside with harlots, and sacrifice with cult prostitutes, and a people without understanding shall come to ruin.
rsv@Hosea:4:15 @ Though you play the harlot, O Israel, let not Judah become guilty. Enter not into Gilgal, nor go up to Beth-a'ven, and swear not, "As the LORD lives."
rsv@Hosea:4:16 @ Like a stubborn heifer, Israel is stubborn; can the LORD now feed them like a lamb in a broad pasture?
rsv@Hosea:5:3 @ I know E'phraim, and Israel is not hid from me; for now, O E'phraim, you have played the harlot, Israel is defiled.
rsv@Hosea:5:8 @ Blow the horn in Gib'e-ah, the trumpet in Ramah. Sound the alarm at Beth-a'ven; tremble, O Benjamin!
rsv@Hosea:5:9 @ E'phraim shall become a desolation in the day of punishment; among the tribes of Israel I declare what is sure.
rsv@Hosea:5:10 @ The princes of Judah have become like those who remove the landmark; upon them I will pour out my wrath like water.
rsv@Hosea:5:15 @ I will return again to my place, until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face, and in their distress they seek me, saying,
rsv@Hosea:6:5 @ Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth, and my judgment goes forth as the light.
rsv@Hosea:6:9 @ As robbers lie in wait for a man, so the priests are banded together; they murder on the way to Shechem, yea, they commit villainy.
rsv@Hosea:7:3 @ By their wickedness they make the king glad, and the princes by their treachery.
rsv@Hosea:7:6 @ For like an oven their hearts burn with intrigue; all night their anger smolders; in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
rsv@Hosea:7:16 @ They turn to Ba'al; they are like a treacherous bow, their princes shall fall by the sword because of the insolence of their tongue. This shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
rsv@Hosea:8:1 @ Set the trumpet to your lips, for a vulture is over the house of the LORD, because they have broken my covenant, and transgressed my law.
rsv@Hosea:8:12 @ Were I to write for him my laws by ten thousands, they would be regarded as a strange thing.
rsv@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and built palaces; and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour his strongholds.
rsv@Hosea:9:1 @ Rejoice not, O Israel! Exult not like the peoples; for you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. You have loved a harlot's hire upon all threshing floors.
rsv@Hosea:9:3 @ They shall not remain in the land of the LORD; but E'phraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
rsv@Hosea:9:13 @ E'phraim's sons, as I have seen, are destined for a prey; E'phraim must lead forth his sons to slaughter.
rsv@Hosea:9:16 @ E'phraim is stricken, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit. Even though they bring forth, I will slay their beloved children.
rsv@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel is a luxuriant vine that yields its fruit. The more his fruit increased the more altars he built; as his country improved he improved his pillars.
rsv@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is false; now they must bear their guilt. The LORD will break down their altars, and destroy their pillars.
rsv@Hosea:10:5 @ The inhabitants of Sama'ria tremble for the calf of Beth-a'ven. Its people shall mourn for it, and its idolatrous priests shall wail over it, over its glory which has departed from it.
rsv@Hosea:10:8 @ The high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed. Thorn and thistle shall grow up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us, and to the hills, Fall upon us.
rsv@Hosea:11:5 @ They shall return to the land of Egypt, and Assyria shall be their king, because they have refused to return to me.
rsv@Hosea:11:11 @ they shall come trembling like birds from Egypt, and like doves from the land of Assyria; and I will return them to their homes, says the LORD.
rsv@Hosea:12:7 @ A trader, in whose hands are false balances, he loves to oppress.
rsv@Hosea:12:9 @ I am the LORD your God from the land of Egypt; I will again make you dwell in tents, as in the days of the appointed feast.
rsv@Hosea:12:12 @ (Jacob fled to the land of Aram, there Israel did service for a wife, and for a wife he herded sheep.)
rsv@Hosea:13:4 @ I am the LORD your God from the land of Egypt; you know no God but me, and besides me there is no savior.
rsv@Hosea:13:5 @ It was I who knew you in the wilderness, in the land of drought;
rsv@Hosea:13:14 @ Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol? Shall I redeem them from Death? O Death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your destruction? Compassion is hid from my eyes.
rsv@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he may flourish as the reed plant, the east wind, the wind of the LORD, shall come, rising from the wilderness; and his fountain shall dry up, his spring shall be parched; it shall strip his treasury of every precious thing.

rsv@Joel:1:8 @ Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the bridegroom of her youth.
rsv@Joel:1:10 @ The fields are laid waste, the ground mourns; because the grain is destroyed, the wine fails, the oil languishes.
rsv@Joel:1:12 @ The vine withers, the fig tree languishes. Pomegranate, palm, and apple, all the trees of the field are withered; and gladness fails from the sons of men.
rsv@Joel:1:13 @ Gird on sackcloth and lament, O priests, wail, O ministers of the altar. Go in, pass the night in sackcloth, O ministers of my God! Because cereal offering and drink offering are withheld from the house of your God.
rsv@Joel:1:14 @ Sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly. Gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land to the house of the LORD your God; and cry to the LORD.

rsv@Joel:1:16 @ Is not the food cut off before our eyes, joy and gladness from the house of our God?
rsv@Joel:1:17 @ The seed shrivels under the clods, the storehouses are desolate; the granaries are ruined because the grain has failed.

rsv@Joel:2:1 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion; sound the alarm on my holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of the LORD is coming, it is near,
rsv@Joel:2:2 @ a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness! Like blackness there is spread upon the mountains a great and powerful people; their like has never been from of old, nor will be again after them through the years of all generations.
rsv@Joel:2:3 @ Fire devours before them, and behind them a flame burns. The land is like the garden of Eden before them, but after them a desolate wilderness, and nothing escapes them.
rsv@Joel:2:5 @ As with the rumbling of chariots, they leap on the tops of the mountains, like the crackling of a flame of fire devouring the stubble, like a powerful army drawn up for battle.
