Hosea 1 - Listen
1
The word
of the LORD
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.
2
The beginning
of the word
of the LORD
by Hosea.
And the LORD
said
to Hosea,
Go,
take
unto thee a wife
of whoredoms
and children
of whoredoms:
for the land
hath committed great
whoredom,
departing from
the LORD.
3
So he went
and took
Gomer
the daughter
of Diblaim;
which conceived,
and bare
him a son.
4
And the LORD
said
unto him, Call
his name
Jezreel;
for yet a little
while , and I will avenge
the blood
of Jezreel
upon the house
of Jehu,
and will cause to cease
the kingdom
of the house
of Israel.
5
And it shall come to pass at that day,
that I will break
the bow
of Israel
in the valley
of Jezreel.
6
And she conceived again,
and bare
a daughter.
And God said
unto him, Call
her name
Loruhamah:
for I will no more
have mercy
upon the house
of Israel;
but I will utterly
take them away.
7
But I will have mercy
upon the house
of Judah,
and will save
them by the LORD
their God,
and will not save
them by bow,
nor by sword,
nor by battle,
by horses,
nor by horsemen.
8
Now when she had weaned
Loruhamah,
she conceived,
and bare
a son.
9
Then said
God , Call
his name
Loammi:
for ye are not my people,
10
Yet the number
of the children
of Israel
shall be as the sand
of the sea,
which cannot be measured
nor numbered;
and it shall come to pass, that in the place
where it was said
unto them, Ye are not my people,
there it shall be said
unto them, Ye are the sons
of the living
God.
11
Then shall the children
of Judah
and the children
of Israel
be gathered
together,
and appoint
themselves one
head,
and they shall come up
out of the land:
for great
shall be the day
of Jezreel. |
Joshua 17 - Listen
1 There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh; for he was the firstborn of Joseph; to wit , for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead: because he was a man of war, therefore he had Gilead and Bashan.
2 There was also a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh by their families; for the children of Abiezer, and for the children of Helek, and for the children of Asriel, and for the children of Shechem, and for the children of Hepher, and for the children of Shemida: these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph by their families.
3 But Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but daughters: and these are the names of his daughters, Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
4 And they came near before Eleazar the priest, and before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the princes, saying, The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brethren. Therefore according to the commandment of the LORD he gave them an inheritance among the brethren of their father.
5 And there fell ten portions to Manasseh, beside the land of Gilead and Bashan, which were on the other side Jordan;
6 Because the daughters of Manasseh had an inheritance among his sons: and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.
7 And the coast of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethah, that lieth before Shechem; and the border went along on the right hand unto the inhabitants of Entappuah.
8 Now Manasseh had the land of Tappuah: but Tappuah on the border of Manasseh belonged to the children of Ephraim;
9 And the coast descended unto the river Kanah, southward of the river: these cities of Ephraim are among the cities of Manasseh: the coast of Manasseh also was on the north side of the river, and the outgoings of it were at the sea:
10 Southward it was Ephraim's, and northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea is his border; and they met together in Asher on the north, and in Issachar on the east.
11 And Manasseh had in Issachar and in Asher Bethshean and her towns, and Ibleam and her towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Endor and her towns, and the inhabitants of Taanach and her towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns, even three countries.
12 Yet the children of Manasseh could not drive out the inhabitants of those cities; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
13 Yet it came to pass, when the children of Israel were waxen strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute; but did not utterly drive them out.
14 And the children of Joseph spake unto Joshua, saying, Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to inherit, seeing I am a great people, forasmuch as the LORD hath blessed me hitherto?
15 And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get thee up to the wood country , and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow
16 And the children of Joseph said, The hill is not enough for us: and all the Canaanites that dwell in the land of the valley have chariots of iron, both they who are of Bethshean and her towns, and they who are of the valley of Jezreel.
17 And Joshua spake unto the house of Joseph, even to Ephraim and to Manasseh, saying, Thou art a great people, and hast great power: thou shalt not have one lot
18 But the mountain shall be thine; for it is a wood, and thou shalt cut it down: and the outgoings of it shall be thine: for thou shalt drive out the Canaanites, though they have iron chariots, and though they be strong. |
