< Hosea 11 >

1 When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son.
Kad Israēls bija bērns, tad Es viņu mīlēju, un Savu dēlu atsaucu no Ēģiptes.
2 The more the prophets called them, the more they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.
Bet jo (tie pravieši) tos sauca, jo vairāk tie no viņiem nogāja; tie upurēja Baāliem un kvēpināja elku tēliem.
3 Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them on my arms, but they did not know that I healed them.
Es tomēr Efraīmu mācīju staigāt, Es tos ņēmu uz Savām rokām, bet tie neatzina, ka Es tos dziedināju.
4 I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love, and I was to them as those who lift up the yoke on their jaws. And I laid food before them.
Es tos vilku ar cilvēka valgiem, ar mīlestības saitēm, un tiem biju kā kas apaušus no viņu žokļiem atvieglina, un Es tiem pasniedzu barību.
5 They shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be their king, because they refused to return to me.
Viņš neatgriezīsies atpakaļ uz Ēģiptes zemi, bet Asurs, tas būs viņa ķēniņš, tāpēc ka tie liedzās atgriezties.
6 And the sword shall fall upon their cities, and shall consume their bars, and devour them, because of their own counsels.
Un zobens zibēs viņu pilsētās un nobeigs un aprīs viņu aizšaujamos viņu padomu dēļ.
7 And my people are bent on backsliding from me. Though they call them to him who is on high, none at all will exalt him.
Jo Maniem ļaudīm prāts nesās, no Manis nogriezties; tie gan top aicināti uz augšu, bet neviena nav, kas ceļas.
8 How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? How shall I cast thee off, Israel? How shall I make thee as Admah? How shall I set thee as Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me. My compassions are kindled together.
Kā Es tev darīšu, Efraīm? Vai Man tevi būs nodot, Israēl? Vai Es tev darīšu kā Admai? Vai tevi postīšu kā Ceboīmu? Mana sirds ir griezusies, un Mana apžēlošanās visai iedegusies.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim. For I am God, and not man, the Holy One in the midst of thee, and I will not come in wrath.
Es nedarīšu pēc Savas bardzības karstuma, nedz Efraīmu atkal postīšu, jo Es esmu Dievs un ne cilvēks, tas Svētais tavā vidū. Un dusmās Es nenākšu.
10 They shall walk after Jehovah, who will roar like a lion. For he will roar, and the sons shall come trembling from the west.
Tad tie dzīsies Tam Kungam pakaļ, Viņš kauks kā lauva, un kad Viņš kauks, tad tie bērni no vakara puses drebēs.
11 They shall come trembling as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria. And I will make them to dwell in their houses, says Jehovah.
Tie drebēdami nāks no Ēģiptes, kā putns un kā balodis no Asura zemes, un Es tiem likšu dzīvot viņu namos, tā saka Tas Kungs.
12 Ephraim encompasses me around with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit, but Judah yet rules with God, and is faithful with the Holy One.
Efraīms Mani apstāj ar meliem un Israēla nams ar viltu, un Jūda vēl šaubās ap Dievu, to uzticīgo un svēto.
