דְּבַר־יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר הָיָה אֶל־הוֹשֵׁעַ בֶּן־בְּאֵרִי בִּימֵי עֻזִּיָּה יוֹתָם אָחָז יְחִזְקִיָּה מַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה וּבִימֵי יָרָבְעָם בֶּן־יוֹאָשׁ מֶלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵל
THE WORD of HaShem that came unto Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
ΛΟΓΟΣ Κυρίου, ὃς ἐγενήθη πρὸς Ὠσηὲ τὸν τοῦ Βεηρεὶ, ἐν ἡμέραις Ὀζίου, καὶ Ἰωάθαμ, καὶ Ἄχαζ, καὶ Ἐζεκίου βασιλέων Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις Ἱεροβοὰμ υἱοῦ Ἰωὰς βασιλέως Ἰσραήλ.
The word of the Lord which came to Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, and Jotham, and Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel.
2
תְּחִלַּת דִּבֶּר־יְהוָה בְּהוֹשֵׁעַ וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל־הוֹשֵׁעַ לֵךְ קַח־לְךָ אֵשֶׁת זְנוּנִים וְיַלְדֵי זְנוּנִים כִּי־זָנֹה תִזְנֶה הָאָרֶץ מֵאַחֲרֵי יְהוָה
When HaShem spoke at first with Hosea, HaShem said unto Hosea: 'Go, take unto thee a wife of harlotry and children of harlotry; for the land doth commit great harlotry, departing from HaShem.'
Ἀρχὴ λόγου Κυρίου ἐν Ὠσῆέ· καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Ὠσηὲ, βάδιζε, λάβε σεαυτῷ γυναῖκα πορνείας, καὶ τέκνα πορνείας, διότι ἐκπορνεύουσα ἐκπορνεύσει ἡ γῆ ἀπὸ ὄπισθεν τοῦ Κυρίου.
The beginning of the word of the Lord by Hosea. And the Lord said to Hosea, Go, take to thyself a wife of fornication, and children of fornication: for the land will surely go a-whoring in departing from the Lord.

וַיֵּלֶךְ וַיִּקַּח אֶת־גֹּמֶר בַּת־דִּבְלָיִם וַתַּהַר וַתֵּלֶד־לוֹ בֵּן
So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.
Καὶ ἐπορεύθη, καὶ ἔλαβε τὴν Γόμερ, θυγατέρα Δεβηλαΐμ· καὶ συνέλαβε καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ υἱόν.
So he went and took Gomer, daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.
4
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֵלָיו קְרָא שְׁמוֹ יִזְרְעֶאל כִּי־עוֹד מְעַט וּפָקַדְתִּי אֶת־דְּמֵי יִזְרְעֶאל עַל־בֵּית יֵהוּא וְהִשְׁבַּתִּי מַמְלְכוּת בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל
And HaShem said unto him: 'Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will visit the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς αὐτὸν, κάλεσον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰεζραὲλ, διότι ἔτι μικρὸν, καὶ ἐκδικήσω τὸ αἷμα τοῦ Ἰεζραὲλ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἰούδα, καὶ καταπαύσω βασιλείαν οἴκου Ἰσραήλ.
And the Lord said to him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little [while], and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Judah, and will make to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
5
וְהָיָה בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא וְשָׁבַרְתִּי אֶת־קֶשֶׁת יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעֵמֶק יִזְרְעֶאל
And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.'
Καὶ ἔσται, ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, συντρίψω τὸ τόξον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐν κοιλάδι τοῦ Ἰεζραέλ.
And it shall be, in that day, [that] I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel.
6
וַתַּהַר עוֹד וַתֵּלֶד בַּת וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ קְרָא שְׁמָהּ לֹא רֻחָמָה כִּי לֹא אוֹסִיף עוֹד אֲרַחֵם אֶת־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי־נָשֹׂא אֶשָּׂא לָהֶם
And she conceived again, and bore a daughter. And He said unto him: 'Call her name Lo-ruhamah; for I will no more have compassion upon the house of Israel, that I should in any wise pardon them.
Καὶ συνέλαβεν ἔτι, καὶ ἔτεκε θυγατέρα· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, κάλεσον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς, οὐκ ἠλεημένη· διότι οὐ μὴ προσθήσω ἔτι ἐλεῆσαι τὸν οἶκον Ἰσραὴλ, ἀλλʼ ἢ ἀντιτασσόμενος ἀντιτάξομαι αὐτοῖς.
And she conceived again, and bore a daughter. And he said to him, Call her name, Unpitied: for I will no more have mercy on the house of Israel, but will surely set myself in array against them.
7
וְאֶת־בֵּית יְהוּדָה אֲרַחֵם וְהוֹשַׁעְתִּים בַּיהוָה אֱלֹהֵיהֶם וְלֹא אוֹשִׁיעֵם בְּקֶשֶׁת וּבְחֶרֶב וּבְמִלְחָמָה בְּסוּסִים וּבְפָרָשִׁים
But I will have compassion upon the house of Judah, and will save them by HaShem their G-d, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.'
Τοὺς δὲ υἱοὺς Ἰούδα ἐλεήσω, καὶ σώσω αὐτοὺς ἐν Κυρίῳ Θεῷ αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐ σώσω αὐτοὺς ἐν τόξῳ, οὐδὲ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ, οὐδὲ ἐν πολέμῳ, οὐδὲ ἐν ἵπποις, οὐδὲ ἐν ἱππεῦσι.
But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and will save them by the Lord their God, and will not save them with bow, nor with sword, nor by war, nor by horses, nor by horsemen.
8
וַתִּגְמֹל אֶת־לֹא רֻחָמָה וַתַּהַר וַתֵּלֶד בֵּן
Now when she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived, and bore a son.
Καὶ ἀπεγαλάκτισε τὴν οὐκ ἠλεημένην· καὶ συνέλαβεν ἔτι, καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱόν.
And she weaned Unpitied; and she conceived again, and bore a son.
9
וַיֹּאמֶר קְרָא שְׁמוֹ לֹא עַמִּי כִּי אַתֶּם לֹא עַמִּי וְאָנֹכִי לֹא־אֶהְיֶה לָכֶם
And He said: 'Call his name Lo-ammi; for ye are not My people, and I will not be yours.'
Καὶ εἶπε, κάλεσον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, οὐ λαός μου· διότι ὑμεῖς οὐ λαός μου, καὶ ἐγὼ οὐκ εἰμὶ ὑμῶν.
And he said, Call his name, Not my people: for ye are not my people, and I am not your [God].
