rsv@Hosea:1:9 @ And the LORD said, "Call his name Not my people, for you are not my people and I am not your God."
rsv@Hosea:2:13 @ And I will punish her for the feast days of the Ba'als when she burned incense to them and decked herself with her ring and jewelry, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, says the LORD.
rsv@Hosea:2:16 @ "And in that day, says the LORD, you will call me, `My husband,' and no longer will you call me, `My Ba'al.'

rsv@Hosea:3:1 @ And the LORD said to me, "Go again, love a woman who is beloved of a paramour and is an adulteress; even as the LORD loves the people of Israel, though they turn to other gods and love cakes of raisins."

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:4:10 @ 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:4:15 @ 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: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:8:13 @ They love sacrifice; they sacrifice flesh and eat it; but the LORD has no delight in them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish their sins; they shall return to Egypt.

rsv@Hosea:9:4 @ They shall not pour libations of wine to the LORD; and they shall not please him with their sacrifices. Their bread shall be like mourners' bread; all who eat of it shall be defiled; for their bread shall be for their hunger only; it shall not come to the house of the LORD.
rsv@Hosea:9:5 @ What will you do on the day of appointed festival, and on the day of the feast of the LORD?
rsv@Hosea:9:14 @ Give them, O LORD--what wilt thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
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:10:3 @ For now they will say: "We have no king, for we fear not the LORD, and a king, what could he do for us?"

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:12:13 @ By a prophet the LORD brought Israel up from Egypt, and by a prophet he was preserved.
rsv@Hosea:12:14 @ E'phraim has given bitter provocation; so his LORD will leave his bloodguilt upon him, and will turn back upon him his reproaches.
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:13:15 @ 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@Hosea:14:1 @ Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God, for you have stumbled because of your iniquity.
rsv@Hosea:14:2 @ Take with you words and return to the LORD; say to him, "Take away all iniquity; accept that which is good and we will render the fruit of our lips.
rsv@Hosea:14:9 @ Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; whoever is discerning, let him know them; for the ways of the LORD are right, and the upright walk in them, but transgressors stumble in them.
rsv@Joel:1:1 @ The word of the LORD that came to Joel, the son of Pethu'el:
rsv@Joel:1:9 @ The cereal offering and the drink offering are cut off from the house of the LORD. The priests mourn, the ministers of the LORD.
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:1:15 @ Alas for the day! For the day of the LORD is near, and as destruction from the Almighty it comes.
rsv@Joel:1:19 @ Unto thee, O LORD, I cry. For fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and flame has burned all the trees of the field.
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:2:11 @ The LORD utters his voice before his army, for his host is exceedingly great; he that executes his word is powerful. For the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; who can endure it?
rsv@Joel:2:12 @ "Yet even now," says the LORD, "return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning;
rsv@Joel:2:13 @ and rend your hearts and not your garments." Return to the LORD, your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and repents of evil.
rsv@Joel:2:14 @ Who knows whether he will not turn and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, a cereal offering and a drink offering for the LORD, your God?
rsv@Joel:2:17 @ Between the vestibule and the altar let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep and say, "Spare thy people, O LORD, and make not thy heritage a reproach, a byword among the nations. Why should they say among the peoples, `Where is their God?'"
rsv@Joel:2:18 @ Then the LORD became jealous for his land, and had pity on his people.
rsv@Joel:2:19 @ The LORD answered and said to his people, "Behold, I am sending to you grain, wine, and oil, and you will be satisfied; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations.
rsv@Joel:2:21 @ "Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice, for the LORD has done great things!
rsv@Joel:2:23 @ "Be glad, O sons of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD, your God; for he has given the early rain for your vindication, he has poured down for you abundant rain, the early and the latter rain, as before.
rsv@Joel:2:26 @ "You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, who has dealt wondrously with you. And my people shall never again be put to shame.
rsv@Joel:2:27 @ You shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I, the LORD, am your God and there is none else. And my people shall never again be put to shame.
rsv@Joel:2:31 @ The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD comes.
rsv@Joel:2:32 @ And it shall come to pass that all who call upon the name of the LORD shall be delivered; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those who escape, as the LORD has said, and among the survivors shall be those whom the LORD calls.

rsv@Joel:3:17 @ "So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, who dwell in Zion, my holy mountain. And Jerusalem shall be holy and strangers shall never again pass through it.
rsv@Joel:3:18 @ "And in that day the mountains shall drip sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the stream beds of Judah shall flow with water; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of the LORD and water the valley of Shittim.
rsv@Joel:3:21 @ I will avenge their blood, and I will not clear the guilty, for the LORD dwells in Zion."

rsv@Amos:1:13 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of the Ammonites, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment; because they have ripped up women with child in Gilead, that they might enlarge their border.
rsv@Amos:1:15 @ and their king shall go into exile, he and his princes together," says the LORD.
rsv@Amos:2:1 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment; because he burned to lime the bones of the king of Edom.

rsv@Amos:2:4 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment; because they have rejected the law of the LORD, and have not kept his statutes, but their lies have led them astray, after which their fathers walked.
rsv@Amos:2:6 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment; because they sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes--
rsv@Amos:2:11 @ And I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Is it not indeed so, O people of Israel?" says the LORD.

rsv@Amos:3:1 @ Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, O people of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt:
rsv@Amos:3:6 @ Is a trumpet blown in a city, and the people are not afraid? Does evil befall a city, unless the LORD has done it?

rsv@Amos:4:5 @ offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim freewill offerings, publish them; for so you love to do, O people of Israel!" says the Lord GOD.
rsv@Amos:4:6 @ "I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in all your places, yet you did not return to me," says the LORD.
rsv@Amos:4:8 @ so two or three cities wandered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet you did not return to me," says the LORD.

rsv@Amos:5:3 @ For thus says the Lord GOD: "The city that went forth a thousand shall have a hundred left, and that which went forth a hundred shall have ten left to the house of Israel."
rsv@Amos:5:4 @ For thus says the LORD to the house of Israel: "Seek me and live;

rsv@Amos:5:8 @ He who made the Plei'ades and Orion, and turns deep darkness into the morning, and darkens the day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the surface of the earth, the LORD is his name,
rsv@Amos:5:14 @ Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so the LORD, the God of hosts, will be with you, as you have said.
rsv@Amos:5:15 @ Hate evil, and love good, and establish justice in the gate; it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts, will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.
rsv@Amos:5:16 @ Therefore thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord: "In all the squares there shall be wailing; and in all the streets they shall say, 'Alas! alas!' They shall call the farmers to mourning and to wailing those who are skilled in lamentation,
rsv@Amos:5:17 @ and in all vineyards there shall be wailing, for I will pass through the midst of you," says the LORD.
rsv@Amos:5:18 @ Woe to you who desire the day of the LORD! Why would you have the day of the LORD? It is darkness, and not light;
rsv@Amos:5:20 @ Is not the day of the LORD darkness, and not light, and gloom with no brightness in it?

We must not mention the name of the LORD."
rsv@Amos:6:11 @ For behold, the LORD commands, and the great house shall be smitten into fragments, and the little house into bits.
rsv@Amos:6:14 @ "For behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel," says the LORD, the God of hosts; "and they shall oppress you from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of the Arabah."

rsv@Amos:7:5 @ Then I said, "O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech thee! How can Jacob stand? He is so small!"
rsv@Amos:7:6 @ The LORD repented concerning this; "This also shall not be," said the Lord GOD.
rsv@Amos:7:7 @ He showed me: behold, the Lord was standing beside a wall built with a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand.
rsv@Amos:7:8 @ And the LORD said to me, "Amos, what do you see?" And I said, "A plumb line." Then the Lord said, "Behold, I am setting a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel; I will never again pass by them;

rsv@Amos:7:16 @ "Now therefore hear the word of the LORD. You say, `Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not preach against the house of Isaac.'
rsv@Amos:7:17 @ Therefore thus says the LORD: `Your wife shall be a harlot in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be parceled out by line; you yourself shall die in an unclean land, and Israel shall surely go into exile away from its land.'"

rsv@Jonah:1:14 @ Therefore they cried to the LORD, "We beseech thee, O LORD, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not on us innocent blood; for thou, O LORD, hast done as it pleased thee."
rsv@Jonah:1:16 @ Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows.

rsv@Jonah:2:2 @ saying, "I called to the LORD, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and thou didst hear my voice.

rsv@Jonah:4:2 @ And he prayed to the LORD and said, "I pray thee, LORD, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that thou art a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and repentest of evil.
rsv@Jonah:4:3 @ Therefore now, O LORD, take my life from me, I beseech thee, for it is better for me to die than to live."
rsv@Jonah:4:4 @ And the LORD said, "Do you do well to be angry?"
