so that we may live in his presence.
Hosea 1:3-4
1:3 So Hosea married
Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim. Then she conceived and gave birth to a son for him.
1:4 Then the
Lord said to Hosea,

the dynasty
of Jehu on account of the bloodshed
in the valley of Jezreel,
and I will put an end to the kingdom
of Israel.
Ezekiel 17:13-19
17:13 He took one from the royal family,
made a treaty with him, and put him under oath.
He then took the leaders of the land
17:14 so it would be a lowly kingdom which could not rise on its own but must keep its treaty with him in order to stand.
17:15 But this one from Israel’s royal family
rebelled against the king of Babylon
by sending his emissaries to Egypt to obtain horses and a large army. Will he prosper? Will the one doing these things escape? Can he break the covenant and escape?
17:16 “‘As surely as I live, declares the sovereign Lord, surely in the city of the king who crowned him, whose oath he despised and whose covenant he broke – in the middle of Babylon he will die!
17:17 Pharaoh with his great army and mighty horde will not help him in battle, when siege ramps are erected and siege-walls are built to kill many people.
17:18 He despised the oath by breaking the covenant. Take note – he gave his promise and did all these things – he will not escape!
17:19 “‘Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: As surely as I live, I will certainly repay him for despising my oath and breaking my covenant!
