Contemporary English Version
Hosea 1:9-11
Contemporary English Version
9 Then the Lord said, “Name him Lo-Ammi,[a] because these people are not mine, and I am not their God.”
Hope for Israel
10 (A) Someday it will be impossible to count the people of Israel, because there will be as many of them as there are grains of sand along the seashore. They are now called “Not My People,” but in the future they will be called “Children of the Living God.” 11 Israel and Judah will unite and choose one leader. Then they will take back their land, and this will be a great day for Jezreel.[b]
