Hosea 2:16-17 or Hosea 2:14-15?

Upvote:4

The Complete Jewish Bible you are looking at (notably, not a Jewish translation at all) is following the numbering scheme of the Masoretic Text where that text corresponds with 2:16-17. In most Christian English translations, this is labeled 2:14-15. (JPS Tanakh and Judaica Press Tanach also use the Masoretic numbering.)

The difference arises because the numbering system of the Masoretic Text ends Chapter 1 after verse 9, whereas in Christian translations it usually ends after verse 11. The shift in mood between 1:9 and 2:1 (MT; 1:9 and 1:10 in English) has been the subject of much commentary, and some consider 2:1 to be the beginning of a 'rhetorical unit,' making the numbering of the MT appealing. But that is beyond the scope of the question.
