Hosea 1:4

And the Lord (Yahweh) said to him,
"Name him Jezreel [meaning: 'God sows', see Zech. 10:9],
for yet a little while
and I will visit the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu
and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease. [Jehu was the one who killed Ahab's family, see 2 Kings 9:16, 25, 33. There is also an allusion here to the fertility god Baal, see Jer. 2:23; Hos 2:13.]
