## Hosea 2:1-2 in Context (Verses 1–5 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/hosea/2/1) Say ye unto your brethren, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ru-hamah. **
 
 [2 ](/kjv/hosea/2/2) Plead with your mother, plead: for she *is* not my wife, neither *am* I her husband: let her therefore put away her whoredoms out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
 
 [3 ](/kjv/hosea/2/3) Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/hosea/2/4) And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they *be* the children of whoredoms.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/hosea/2/5) For their mother hath played the harlot: she that conceived them hath done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give *me* my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink.*
 
[Hosea 1](/kjv/hosea/1) [Hosea 3](/kjv/hosea/3)
