Hosea 2:4
World English Bible (WEB)
Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy, for they are children of unfaithfulness.
In context
2 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;
3 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.
4 Indeed, on her children I will have no mercy, for they are children of unfaithfulness.
5 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.’
6 Therefore behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can’t find her way.
