Where Lo-ruhamah appears in Scripture

Hosea 1

וַתַּהַר עוֹד וַתֵּלֶד בַּת וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ קְרָא שְׁמָהּ לֹא רֻחָמָה כִּי לֹא אוֹסִיף עוֹד אֲרַחֵם אֶת-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּֽי-נָשֹׂא אֶשָּׂא לָהֶֽם׃
6
And she conceived again, and bare a daughter. And God said unto him, Call her name Lo-ruhamah: for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.
וַתִּגְמֹל אֶת-לֹא רֻחָמָה וַתַּהַר וַתֵּלֶד בֵּֽן׃
8
Now when she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son.
