OET (OET-LV) And_it_was in_the_day (the)_that and_I_will_break DOM the_bow_of Yisrāʼēl/(Israel) in_the_valley_of Yizrəˊʼēl/(Jezreel).

OET (OET-RV) At that time in the Yizre’el valley, I’ll break Yisrael’s military power.”

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 1:2–9: Hosea married an unfaithful wife and fathered three children

The LORD commanded Hosea to marry Gomer. She was an immoral woman who would be unfaithful to him. Her unfaithfulness illustrated Israel’s unfaithfulness to the LORD. The LORD also commanded Hosea to give their three children names that would serve as warnings of future judgments.

Here are some other possible headings for this section:

Hosea’s wife and children (GNT)

Hosea’s marriage symbolized the LORD’s relationship to Israel

Paragraph 1:4–5

This paragraph refers back to an event that occurred in a place called Jezreel. In Jezreel, King Jehu, an ancestor of Jeroboam II, had brutally killed the family of King Ahab (see 2 Kings 9–10). Although the LORD himself had commanded Jehu to destroy the family of Ahab (see 2 Kings 9:7), Jehu had exceeded this command when he killed many other people as well. For this reason, the LORD was going to punish Jehu’s descendants. It may be helpful to include some of this historical information in a footnote to help your readers to understand the reason for God’s judgment.

1:5

And on that day I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel.”

And on that day: This phrase refers here to the time in the future when the LORD will bring an end to the kingdom of Israel. It does not refer to a literal 24-hour day.

Here is another way to translate this phrase:

At that time (GNT)

Some versions omit this expression, because the meaning is clear from the context. Do what is most natural in your language.

I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel: The LORD warned Israel here that he would use an enemy army to defeat them in the Valley of Jezreel and destroy their military power.

I will break the bow of Israel: The bow was one of the main instruments of warfare in Hosea’s time. Here it is used as a figure of speech to symbolize Israel’s power and military strength.Wood (page 171) and Stuart (page 30).

If this figure of speech is not clear in your language, here are some other ways to translate it:

With either option, be careful not to imply that God literally will be fighting Israel at Jezreel. In some languages, it may be necessary to make explicit that the LORD will use an enemy nation as his instrument to destroy Israel’s military power. For example:

At that time, I will cause the enemies of Israel to defeat her at the Valley of Jezreel, so that Israel will not be able to fight any more.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

(Occurrence 0) the bow of Israel

(Some words not found in UHB: and=it_was in_the=day (the)=that and,I_will_break DOM bow_of Yisrael in,the_valley_of Yizrəˊʼēl/(Jezreel) )

Here “bow” refers to the power of the army. Alternate translation: “the military power of Israel”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

1:5 King Tiglath-pileser III of Assyria fulfilled this prophecy in 733 BC when he defeated Israelite forces and captured the Valley of Jezreel.
