Then the Lord said to Hosea, &#8220;Call her Lo-Ruhamah (which means &#8220;not loved&#8221;), for I will no longer show love to Israel, that I should at all forgive them. 7Yet I will show love to Judah; and I will save them&#8212;not by bow, sword or battle, or by horses and horsemen, but I, the Lord their God, will save them.&#8221;</div><div class="p"> 8After she had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, Gomer had another son. 9Then the Lord said, &#8220;Call him Lo-Ammi (which means &#8220;not my people&#8221;), for you are not my people, and I am not your God.#1:9 Or your I am</div><div class="p"> 10&#8220;Yet the Israelites will be like the sand on the seashore, which cannot be measured or counted. In the place where it was said to them, &#8216;You are not my people,&#8217; they will be called &#8216;children of the living God.&#8217; 11The people of Judah and the people of Israel will come together; they will appoint one leader and will come up out of the land, for great will be the day of Jezreel.#1:11 In Hebrew texts 1:10,11 is numbered 2:1,2.</div>
