Hosea the prophet, son of Beeri.

2He was born in Belomoth, of the tribe of Issachar.

3This man gave a sign that the Lord would come from heaven upon the earth; and this is the sign of his coming: when the oak in Shiloh shall be divided of itself into twelve parts, and there shall be twelve oaks; and so it came to pass.

4And having prophesied much concerning the fornication of his people, he died in peace, and was buried in his own land.
