هُوشَع 1

١ 1 قَوْلُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي صَارَ إِلَى هُوشَعَ بْنِ بِئِيرِي، فِي أَيَّامِ عُزِّيَّا وَيُوثَامَ وَآحَازَ وَحَزَقِيَّا مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا، وَفِي أَيَّامِ يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ يُوآشَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

The word of Yhwh that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

٢ 2 أَوَّلَ مَا كَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ هُوشَعَ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِهُوشَعَ: «ٱذْهَبْ خُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ ٱمْرَأَةَ زِنًى وَأَوْلَادَ زِنًى، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ قَدْ زَنَتْ زِنًى تَارِكَةً ٱلرَّبَّ».

The beginning of the word of Yhwh by Hosea. And Yhwh said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from Yhwh.

٣ 3 فَذَهَبَ وَأَخَذَ جُومَرَ بِنْتَ دِبْلَايِمَ، فَحَبِلَتْ وَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ ٱبْنًا،

So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bare him a son.

٤ 4 فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ: «ٱدْعُ ٱسْمَهُ يَزْرَعِيلَ، لِأَنَّنِي بَعْدَ قَلِيلٍ أُعَاقِبُ بَيْتَ يَاهُو عَلَى دَمِ يَزْرَعِيلَ، وَأُبِيدُ مَمْلَكَةَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

And Yhwh said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.

٥ 5 وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أَنِّي أَكْسِرُ قَوْسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي وَادِي يَزْرَعِيلَ».

And it shall come to pass at that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.

٦ 6 ثُمَّ حَبِلَتْ أَيْضًا وَوَلَدَتْ بِنْتًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «ٱدْعُ ٱسْمَهَا لُورُحَامَةَ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَعُودُ أَرْحَمُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَيْضًا، بَلْ أَنْزِعُهُمْ نَزْعًا.

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.

٧ 7 وَأَمَّا بَيْتُ يَهُوذَا فَأَرْحَمُهُمْ وَأُخَلِّصُهُمْ بِٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِمْ، وَلَا أُخَلِّصُهُمْ بِقَوْسٍ وَبِسَيْفٍ وَبِحَرْبٍ وَبِخَيْلٍ وَبِفُرْسَانٍ».

But I will have mercy upon the house of Judah, and will save them by Yhwh their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.

٨ 8 ثُمَّ فَطَمَتْ لُورُحَامَةَ وَحَبِلَتْ فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا،

Now when she had weaned Lo–ruhamah, she conceived, and bare a son.

٩ 9 فَقَالَ: «ٱدْعُ ٱسْمَهُ لُوعَمِّي، لِأَنَّكُمْ لَسْتُمْ شَعْبِي وَأَنَا لَا أَكُونُ لَكُمْ.

Then said God, Call his name Lo–ammi: for ye are not my people, and I will not be your God.

١٠ 10 لَكِنْ يَكُونُ عَدَدُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَرَمْلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلَّذِي لَا يُكَالُ وَلَا يُعَدُّ، وَيَكُونُ عِوَضًا عَنْ أَنْ يُقَالَ لَهُمْ: لَسْتُمْ شَعْبِي، يُقَالُ لَهُمْ: أَبْنَاءُ ٱللهِ ٱلْحَيِّ.

Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God.

١١ 11 وَيُجْمَعُ بَنُو يَهُوذَا وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعًا وَيَجْعَلُونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ رَأْسًا وَاحِدًا، وَيَصْعَدُونَ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّ يَوْمَ يَزْرَعِيلَ عَظِيمٌ.

Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
