dourh@Hosea:1:11 @ And the children of Juda, and the children of Israel shall be gathered together: and they shall appoint themselves one head, and shall come up out of the land: for great is the day of Jezrahel.

dourh@Hosea:2:2 @ Judge your mother, judge her: because she is not my wife, and I am not her husband. Let her put away her fornications from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts.

dourh@Hosea:2:4 @ And I will not have mercy on her children: for they are the children of fornications.
dourh@Hosea:2:5 @ For their mother hath committed fornication, she that conceived them is covered with shame: for she said: I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread, and my water, my wool, and my flax, my oil, and my drink.

dourh@Hosea:3:1 @ And the Lord said to me: Go yet again, and love a woman beloved of her friend, and an adulteress: as the Lord loveth the children of Israel, and they look to strange gods, and love the husks of the grapes.

dourh@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel, for the Lord shall enter into judgment with the inhabitants of the land: for there is no truth, and there is no mercy, and there is no knowledge of God in the land.
dourh@Hosea:4:2 @ Cursing, and lying, and killing, and theft, and adultery have overflowed, and blood hath touched blood.
dourh@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth in it shall languish with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the air: yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be gathered together.

dourh@Hosea:4:5 @ And thou shalt fall to day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee: in the night I have made thy mother to be silent.
dourh@Hosea:4:6 @ My people have been silent, because they had no knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will reject thee, that thou shalt not do the office of priesthood to me: and thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I also will forget thy children.
dourh@Hosea:4:7 @ According to the multitude of them so have they sinned against me: I will change their glory into shame.
dourh@Hosea:4:8 @ They shall eat the sins of my people, and shall lift up their souls to their iniquity.
dourh@Hosea:4:9 @ And there shall be like people like priest: and I will visit their ways upon them, and I will repay them their devices.
dourh@Hosea:4:10 @ And they shall eat and shall not be filled: they have committed fornication, and have not ceased: because they have forsaken the Lord in not observing his law.
dourh@Hosea:4:11 @ Fornication, and wine, and drunkenness take away the understanding.
dourh@Hosea:4:12 @ My people have consulted their stocks, and their staff hath declared unto them: for the spirit of fornication hath deceived them, and they have committed fornication against their God.
dourh@Hosea:4:13 @ They offered sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burnt incense upon the hills: under the oak, and the poplar, and the turpentine tree, because the shadow thereof was good: therefore shall your daughters commit fornication, and your spouses shall be adulteresses.
dourh@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not visit upon your daughters when they shell commit fornication, and upon your spouses when they shall commit adultery: because themselves conversed with harlots, and offered sacrifice with the effeminate, and the people that doth not understand shall be beaten.
dourh@Hosea:4:15 @ If thou play the harlot, O Israel, at least let not Juda offend: and go ye not into Galgal, and come not up into Bethaven, and do not swear: The Lord liveth.
dourh@Hosea:4:16 @ For Israel hath gone astray like a wanton heifer: now will the Lord feed them, as a lamb in a spacious place.
dourh@Hosea:4:18 @ Their banquet is separated, they have gone astray by fornication: they that should have protected them have loved to bring shame upon them.
dourh@Hosea:4:19 @ The wind hath bound them up in its wings, and they shall be confounded because of their sacrifices.
dourh@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear ye this, O priests, and hearken, O ye house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king: for there is a judgment against you, because you have been a snare to them whom you should have watched over, and a net spread upon Thabor.
dourh@Hosea:5:2 @ And you have turned aside victims into the depth: and I am, the teacher of them all.
dourh@Hosea:5:3 @ I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now Ephraim hath committed fornication, Israel is defiled.
dourh@Hosea:5:4 @ They will not set their thoughts to return to their God: for the spirit of fornication is in the midst of them, and they have not known the Lord.
dourh@Hosea:5:5 @ And the pride of Israel shall answer in his face: and Israel and Ephraim shall fall in their iniquity, Juda also shall fall with them.
dourh@Hosea:5:6 @ With their flocks, and with their herds, they shall go to seek the Lord, and shall not find him: he is withdrawn from them.
dourh@Hosea:5:7 @ They have transgressed against the Lord, for they have begotten children that are strangers: now shall a month devour them with their portions.
dourh@Hosea:5:11 @ Ephraim is under oppression, and broken in judgment: because he began to go after filthiness.
dourh@Hosea:5:12 @ And I will be like a moth to Ephraim: and like rottenness to the house of Juda.
dourh@Hosea:5:13 @ And Ephraim saw his sickness, and Juda his band: and Ephraim went to the Assyrian, and sent to the avenging king: and he shall not be able to heal you, neither shall he be able to take off the band from you.
dourh@Hosea:5:14 @ For I will be like a lioness to Ephraim, and like a lion's whelp to the house of Juda: I, I will catch, and go: I will take away, and there is none that can rescue.
dourh@Hosea:5:15 @ I will go and return to my place: until you are consumed, and seek my face.
dourh@Hosea:6:1 @ In their affliction they will rise early to me: Come, and let us return to the Lord:
dourh@Hosea:6:2 @ For he hath taken us, and he will heal us: he will strike, and he will cure us.
dourh@Hosea:6:3 @ He will revive us after two days: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight. We shall know, and we shall follow on, that we may know the Lord. His going forth is prepared as the morning light, and he will come to us as the early and the latter rain to the earth.
dourh@Hosea:6:4 @ What shall I do to thee, O Ephraim? what shall I do to thee, O Juda? your mercy is as a morning cloud, and as the dew that goeth away in the morning.
dourh@Hosea:6:5 @ For this reason have I hewed them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments shall go forth as the light.
dourh@Hosea:6:6 @ For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice: and the knowledge of God more than holocausts.
dourh@Hosea:6:7 @ But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant, there have they dealt treacherously against me.
dourh@Hosea:6:8 @ Galaad is a city of workers of idols, supplanted with blood.
dourh@Hosea:6:9 @ And like the jaws of highway robbers, they conspire with the priests who murder in the way those that pass out Sichem: for they have wrought wickedness.
dourh@Hosea:6:11 @ And thou also, O Juda, set thee a harvest, when I shall bring back captivity of my people.
dourh@Hosea:7:1 @ When I would have healed Israel, the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria, for they have committed falsehood, and the thief is come in to steal, the robber is without.
dourh@Hosea:7:2 @ And lest they may say in their hearts, that I remember all their wickedness: their own devices now have beset them about, they have been done before my face.
dourh@Hosea:7:3 @ They have made the king glad with their wickedness: and the princes with their lies.
dourh@Hosea:7:4 @ They are all adulterers, like an oven heated by the baker: the city rested a little from the mingling of the leaven, till the whole was leavened.
dourh@Hosea:7:5 @ The day of our king, the princes began to be mad with wine: he stretched out his hand with scorners.
dourh@Hosea:7:6 @ Because they have applied their heart like an oven, when he laid snares for them: he slept all the night baking them, in the morning he himself was heated as a flaming fire.
dourh@Hosea:7:7 @ They were all heated like an oven, and have devoured their judges: all their kings have fallen: there is none amongst them that calleth unto me.
dourh@Hosea:7:9 @ Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knew it not: yea, grey hairs also are spread about upon him, and he is ignorant of it.
dourh@Hosea:7:10 @ And the pride of Israel shall be humbled before his face: and they have not returned to the Lord their God, nor have they sought him in all these.
dourh@Hosea:7:11 @ And Ephraim is become as a dove that is decoyed, not having a heart: they called upon Egypt, they went to the Assyrians.
dourh@Hosea:7:12 @ And when they shall go, I will spread my net upon them: I will bring them down as the fowl of the air, I will strike them as their congregation hath heard.
dourh@Hosea:7:13 @ Woe to them, for they have departed from me: they shall be wasted because they have transgressed against me: and I redeemed them: and they have spoken lies against me.
dourh@Hosea:7:14 @ And they have not cried to me with their heart, but they howled in their beds: they have thought upon wheat and wine, they are departed from me.
dourh@Hosea:7:15 @ And I have chastised them, and strengthened their arms: and they have imagined evil against me.
dourh@Hosea:7:16 @ They returned, that they might be without yoke: they became like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword, for the rage of their tongue. This is their derision in the land of Egypt.
dourh@Hosea:8:1 @ Let there be a trumpet in thy throat like an eagle upon the house of the Lord: because they have transgressed my covenant, and have violated my law.
dourh@Hosea:8:4 @ They have reigned, but not by me: they have been princes, and I knew not: of their silver, and their gold they have made idols to themselves, that they might perish.
dourh@Hosea:8:5 @ Thy calf, O Samaria, is cast off, my wrath is kindled against them. How long will they be incapable of being cleansed?
dourh@Hosea:8:6 @ For itself also is the invention of Israel: a workman made it, and it is no god: for the calf of Samaria shall be turned to spiders' webs.
dourh@Hosea:8:7 @ For they shall sow wind, and reap a whirlwind, there is no standing stalk in it, the bud shall yield no meal; end if it should yield, strangers shall eat it.
dourh@Hosea:8:8 @ Israel is swallowed up: now is he become among the nations like an unclean vessel.
dourh@Hosea:8:10 @ But even though they shall have hired the nations, now will I gather them together: and they shall rest a while from the burden of the king, and the princes.
dourh@Hosea:8:11 @ Because Ephraim hath made many altars to sin: altars are become to him unto sin.
dourh@Hosea:8:12 @ I shall write to him my manifold laws, which have been accounted as foreign.
dourh@Hosea:8:13 @ They shall offer victims, they shall sacrifice flesh, and shall eat it, and the Lord will not receive them: now will he remember their iniquity, and will visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.
dourh@Hosea:8:14 @ And Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and hath built temples: and Juda hath built many fenced cities: and I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the houses thereof.
dourh@Hosea:9:2 @ The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the wine shall deceive them.
dourh@Hosea:9:3 @ They shall not dwell in the Lord's land: Ephraim is returned to Egypt, and hath eaten unclean things among the Assyrians.
dourh@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of visitation are come, the days of repaying are come: know ye, O Israel, that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, for the multitude of thy iniquity, and the multitude of thy madness.
dourh@Hosea:9:8 @ The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: the prophet is become a snare of ruin upon all his ways, madness is in the house of his God.
dourh@Hosea:9:9 @ They have sinned deeply, as in the days of Gabaa: he will remember their iniquity, and will visit their sin.
dourh@Hosea:9:10 @ I found Israel like grapes in the desert, I saw their fathers like the firstfruits of the fig tree in the top thereof: but they went in to Beelphegor, and alienated themselves to that confusion, and became abominable, as those things were, which they loved.
dourh@Hosea:9:11 @ As for Ephraim, their glory hath flown away like a bird from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.
dourh@Hosea:9:12 @ And though they should bring up their children, I will make them without children among men: yea, and woe to them, when I shall depart from them.
dourh@Hosea:9:13 @ Ephraim, as I saw, was a Tyre founded in beauty: and Ephraim shall bring out his children to the murderer.
dourh@Hosea:9:14 @ Give them, O Lord. What wilt thou give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts.
dourh@Hosea:9:16 @ Ephraim is struck, their root is dried up, they shall yield no fruit. And if they should have issue, I will slay the best beloved fruit of their womb.
dourh@Hosea:9:17 @ My God will cast them away, because they hearkened not to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
dourh@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel a vine full of branches, the fruit is agreeable to it: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath multiplied altars, according to the plenty of his land he hath abounded with idols.
dourh@Hosea:10:3 @ For now they shall say: We have no king: because we fear not the Lord: and what shall a king do to us?
dourh@Hosea:10:4 @ You speak words of an unprofitable vision, and you shall make a covenant: and judgment shall spring up as bitterness in the furrows of the field.
dourh@Hosea:10:5 @ The inhabitants of Samaria have worshipped the king of Bethaven: for the people thereof have mourned over it, and the wardens of its temple that rejoiced over it in its glory because it is departed from it.
dourh@Hosea:10:6 @ For itself also is carried into Assyria, a present to the avenging king: shame shall fall upon Ephraim, and Israel shall be confounded in his own will.
dourh@Hosea:10:8 @ And the high places of the idol, the sin of Israel shall be destroyed: the bur and the thistle shall grow up over their altars: and they shall say to the mountains: Cover us; and to the hills: Fall upon us.
dourh@Hosea:10:10 @ According to my desire I will chastise them: and the nations shall be gathered together against them, when they shall be chastised for their two iniquities.
dourh@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow for yourselves in justice, and reap in the mouth of mercy, break up your fallow ground: but the time to seek the Lord is, when he shall come that shall teach you justice.
dourh@Hosea:10:14 @ A tumult shall arise among thy people: and all thy fortresses shall be destroyed as Salmana was destroyed, by the house of him that judged Baal in the day of battle, the mother being dashed in pieces upon her children.

dourh@Hosea:11:4 @ I will draw them with the cords of Adam, with the bands of love: and I will be to them as one that taketh off the yoke on their jaws: and I put his meat to him that he might eat.

dourh@Hosea:11:8 @ How shall I deal with thee, O Ephraim, shall I protect thee, O Israel? how shall I make thee as Adama, shall I set thee as Seboim? my heart is turned within me, my repentance is stirred up.

dourh@Hosea:11:11 @ And they shall fly away like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of the Assyrians: and I will place them in their own houses, saith the Lord.
dourh@Hosea:11:12 @ Ephraim hath compassed me about with denials, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Juda went down as a witness with God, and is faithful with the saints.
dourh@Hosea:12:1 @ Ephraim feedeth on the wind, and followeth the burning heat: all the day long he multiplied lies and desolation: and he hath made a covenant with the Assyrians, and carried oil into Egypt.
dourh@Hosea:12:2 @ Therefore there is a judgment of the Lord with Juda, and a visitation for Jacob: he will render to him according to his ways, and according to his devices.
dourh@Hosea:12:3 @ In the womb he supplanted his brother: and by his strength he had success with an angel.
dourh@Hosea:12:4 @ And he prevailed over the angel, and was strengthened: he wept, and made supplication to him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spoke with us.
dourh@Hosea:12:6 @ Therefore turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment, and hope in thy God always.
dourh@Hosea:12:7 @ He is like Chanaan, there is a deceitful balance in his hand, he hath loved oppression.
dourh@Hosea:12:8 @ And Ephraim said: But yet I am be- come rich, I have found me an idol: all my labours shall not find me the iniquity that I have committed.

dourh@Hosea:12:10 @ And I have spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and I have used similitudes by the ministry of the prophets.
dourh@Hosea:12:11 @ If Galaad be an idol, then in vain were they in Galgal offering sacrifices with bullocks: for their altars also are as heaps in the furrows of the field.
dourh@Hosea:12:12 @ Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and was a keeper for a wife.
