The word: “Contend with your mother!”
어미와 쟁론하라는 말씀
Hosea 2:1–5: the text says, “Say to your brothers, ‘My people!’ and to your sisters, ‘My loved one!’ Contend with your mother! Contend, for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her prostitution from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts; lest I strip her naked, and make her bare as in the day that she was born, and make her like a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and kill her with thirst. Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy, for they are children of unfaithfulness. For their mother has played the prostitute. She who conceived them has done shamefully; for she said, ‘I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.’” These verses carry no words naming who speaks, and the text does not say who the mother is. WEB does not close at 2:5 the quotation it opens at 2:1. The Korean Revised Version reads at 2:1 the words 암미 and 루하마, where WEB reads “My people!” and “My loved one!”.

All await human review. They are a separate list from the source passages above. An empty list does not mean the entry is absent from the text.
