Hosea 3

About Hosea Hosea uses the prophet's own unfaithful marriage to show God's faithful love for unfaithful Israel.

Then said the LORD unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.SelectedHosea 3:1Ask

So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:SelectedHosea 3:2Ask

And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.SelectedHosea 3:3Ask

For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:SelectedHosea 3:4Ask

Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.SelectedHosea 3:5Ask
