Hosea 14
1 Israel, return to the LORD your God; for you have fallen because of your sin.
convertere Israhel ad Dominum Deum tuum quoniam corruisti in iniquitate tua
2 Take words with you, and return to the LORD. Tell him, “Forgive all our sins, and accept that which is good; so we offer bulls as we vowed of our lips.
tollite vobiscum verba et convertimini ad Dominum dicite ei omnem aufer iniquitatem et accipe bonum et reddemus vitulos labiorum nostrorum
3 Assyria cannot save us. We will not ride on horses; neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, ‘Our gods!’ for in you the fatherless finds mercy.”
Assur non salvabit nos super equum non ascendemus nec dicemus ultra dii nostri opera manuum nostrarum quia eius qui in te est misereberis pupilli
4 “I will heal their waywardness. I will love them freely; for my anger is turned away from them.
sanabo contritiones eorum diligam eos spontanee quia aversus est furor meus ab eo
5 I will be like the dew to Israel. He will blossom like the lily, and send down his roots like Lebanon.
ero quasi ros Israhel germinabit quasi lilium et erumpet radix eius ut Libani
6 His branches will spread, and his beauty will be like the olive tree, and his fragrance like Lebanon.
ibunt rami eius et erit quasi oliva gloria eius et odor eius ut Libani
7 Men will dwell in his shade. They will revive like the grain, and blossom like the vine. Their fragrance will be like the wine of Lebanon.
convertentur sedentes in umbra eius vivent tritico et germinabunt quasi vinea memoriale eius sicut vinum Libani
8 Ephraim, what have I to do any more with idols? I answer, and will take care of him. I am like a green cypress tree; from me your fruit is found.”
Ephraim quid mihi ultra idola ego exaudiam et dirigam eum ego ut abietem virentem ex me fructus tuus inventus est
9 Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Who is prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of the LORD are right, and the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them.
quis sapiens et intelleget ista intellegens et sciet haec quia rectae viae Domini et iusti ambulabunt in eis praevaricatores vero corruent in eis
