Hosea 1:7-11 Common English Bible (CEB)

7. But I will have compassion on the house of Judah. I, the Lord their God, will save them; I will not save them by bow, or by sword, or by war, or by horses, or by horsemen."

8. When Gomer finished nursing No Compassion, she became pregnant and gave birth to a son.

9. Then the Lord said, "Name him Not My People because you are not my people, and I am not your God."

10. Yet the number of the people of Israel will be like the sand of the sea, which can be neither measured nor numbered; and in the place where it was said to them, "You are not my people," it will be said to them, "Children of the living God."

11. The people of Judah and the people of Israel will be gathered together, and they will choose one head. They will become fruitful in the land. The day will be a wonderful one for Jezreel.
