Isaiah Hosea

Isaiah chapter 23 and the book of Hosea.

1.1The burden of Tyre: 1.2Howl, boats of Tarshish, 1.3for he who brings merchandise is plundered. 1.4From the land of Kittim 1.5the news has been revealed to us. Isaiah 23:12.1Be still inhabitants of the islands, 2.2the merchants of Sidon 2.3that passed the sea. 3.1Your commerce is on many waters, 3.2seed of merchants; 3.3the harvest of the river is her revenue, 3.4and she is a mart of peoples. Isaiah 23:2-34.1Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, 4.2even the strength of the sea, saying, 4.3I have not been in travail nor have I given birth to sons, 4.4nor have I reared young men nor have I brought up virgins. 5.1When the news reaches Mizraim, 5.2they will be in pain over the report of Tyre. Isaiah 23:4-56.1Pass to Tarshish; 6.2howl inhabitants of the islands. 7.1Is this your mighty city, 7.2whose antiquity is of ancient days? 7.3Her own feet will carry her 7.4far away to reside temporarily. 8.1Who has taken this counsel against Tyre, 8.2the crowning city, 8.3whose merchants are princes, 8.4whose traders are the honorable of the land? 9.1The Master of Hosts has purposed it, 9.2to bring to an end the glory of every mighty man 9.3and to bring into dishonor all the honorable men of the land. Isaiah 23:6-910.1Pass through your land like a river, 10.2daughter of Tarshish; 10.3there is no one to drive you away. 11.1He stretched out his hand over the sea 11.2and he angered the kingdoms; 11.3the Master has given a commandment against Phoencia 11.4to destroy its mighty men. 12.1He said, You will not become mighty any longer, 12.2oppressed virgin, daughter of Sidon; Isaiah 23:10-1212.3arise, pass to Kittim; 12.4there you will also have no rest. 13.1The land of the Chaldeans; 13.2this is the people, 13.3and not the Assyrians, who destroyed it; 13.4they appointed spies who spied on her houses, 13.5and they brought it to ruin. Isaiah 23:12.3-1314.1Howl, boats of Tarshish; 14.2for your stronghold is plundered. Isaiah 23:1415It will come to pass in that day that Tyre will be forgotten for 70 years according to the days of 1 king. I Zechariah 1:12 After the end of 70 years they will sing to Tyre a prostitute's song: I Zechariah 2:10 16.1Take a harp, go about the city, 16.2prostitute that has been forgotten; 16.3play sweet melodies, sing many songs, 16.4that you may be remembered. Isaiah 23:15-1617It will come to pass at the end of 70 years that the Master will visit Tyre and she will turn to her traffic and commit fornications with all the kingdoms that are on the face of the land. 18Her merchandise and her hire will be holy to the Master. It will not be treasured nor laid up, for her merchandise will be for those who live before the Master I Zechariah 3:7 to eat abundantly I Zechariah 3:10 and replace their old garments with new ones.

Hosea Takes Gomer - Has Children

2The beginning of the word of the Master that came to Hosea. The Master said to Hosea, Go, take to yourself a wife of prostitutions and children of prostitutions, for the land will commit great prostitution in departing from the Master. E Jeremiah 3:8 3He went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim who conceived and bore him a son. I Isaiah 13:8 Hosea 1:2-34The Master said to him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and I will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease. 5It will come to pass in that day, I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel. Hosea 1:4-56She conceived again and bore a daughter. The Master said to him, Call her name Lo Ruhamah, for I will not have mercy on the house of Israel any longer and I will utterly cause them to be carried away captive. 7But I will have mercy on the house of Judah and I will save them by the Master their God and will not save them by bow nor by sword nor by battle nor by horses nor by horsemen. E 2 Kings 19:35 Hosea 1:6-78She weaned Lo Ruhamah and she conceived again and bore a son. 9The Master said to me, Call his name Lo Ammi; for you are not my people and I will not be your God. Hosea 1:8-910Yet the number of the children of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, P Genesis 32:12 which cannot be measured nor numbered, and it will come to pass that in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people, there it will be said to them, You are the children of the Living God. Q Romans 9:26 11The children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together and they will appoint themselves 1 head and they will come up out of the land, for great is the day of Jezreel. Hosea 1:10-11

Gomer Leaves

1Say to your brothers, Ammi, and to your sisters, Ruhamah. Hosea 2:1 2.1Plead with your mother, plead; 2.2for she is not my wife, 2.3nor am I her husband. 2.4Therefore, let her put away her prostitutions out of her sight 2.5and her adulteries from between her breasts, 3.1lest I strip her naked 3.2and leave her bare as in the day that she was born, 3.3and make her as a wilderness 3.4and as a dry land, 3.5and cause her to die with thirst. 4.1I will not have mercy on her sons; 4.2for they are the children of prostitutions. 5.1For their mother has played the prostitute; 5.2she that conceived them has done shamefully; 5.3for she said, I will go after my lovers 5.4who give me my bread and my water, 5.5my clothes and my linen, my oil and everything that I need. 6.1Therefore, I will hedge up her way with thorns, 6.2and fence her paths so that she will not find her paths. 7.1She will follow after her lovers and will not overtake them, 7.2and she will seek them, but will not find them; 7.3then she will say, 7.4I will return and go to my 1st husband; 7.5for it was better with me then than now, 8.1for she did not know that it was I 8.2who gave her wheat and wine and oil, 8.3and multiplied her silver and gold, 8.4some of which they made for the images of Baal. Hosea 2:2-89.1Therefore, I will return and take away my wheat in its time 9.2and my wine in its season, 9.3and will take away my wool and my linen 9.4which I gave her to cover her nakedness. 10.1Now I will uncover her nakedness 10.2in the presence of her lovers, 10.3and no one will deliver her out of my hands. 11.1I will cause all her mirth to cease, 11.2her feast days, her new months, 11.3her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts. 12.1I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, 12.2of which she said, These are presents which my lovers have given me; 12.3and I will make them a forest, 12.4and the animals of the field will eat them. 13.1I will punish her for the evils of the days of Baal, 13.2in which she burned incense to them 13.3and decked herself with her earrings and her pearls 13.4and went after her lovers 13.5and forgot me, says the Master. Hosea 2:9-13

Hosea Takes Gomer Back

14.1Therefore, I will comfort her, 14.2and bring her into the wilderness, 14.3and speak lovingly to her. 15.1I will give her vineyards from there, 15.2and the valley of Achor that it may open her understanding; 15.3and she will be humbled there, as in the days of her youth, 15.4and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Mizraim. Hosea 2:14-1516.1It will be in that day, says the Master, 16.2that you will call me, My Husband, 16.3and will not call me, My Baal, any longer. 17.1For I will take away the name of Baal out of her mouth, 17.2and they will not remember again his name. 18.1In that day, I will make a contract for them 18.2with the animals of the field and with the birds of the air 18.3and with the creeping things of the ground; 18.4and I will do away with 18.5the bow and the sword and the battle out of the land, 18.6and I will make them live in safety. 19.1I will betroth you to me forever; 19.2yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness and in justice 19.3and in lovingkindness and in mercy. 20.1I will betroth you to me in faithfulness; 20.2and you will know the Master. Hosea 2:16-2021.1It will come to pass in that day, says the Master, 21.2I will answer the skies, 21.3and they will answer the land; 22.1and the land will answer the grain 22.2and the wine and the oil; 22.3and they will answer Jezreel. 23.1I will sow her for myself in the land 23.2and I will have mercy on Lo Ruhamah 23.3and I will call Lo Ammi, My people, 23.4and they will say, You are my God.
