Hosea 3

1 Then the LORD said to me, “Go show love to your wife again, though she is loved by another and is an adulteress. Love her as the LORD loves the Israelites, though they turn to other gods and offer raisin cakes to idols.”

Potom reèe mi Gospod: idi opet, ljubi ženu koju ljubi ljubavnik a ona èini preljubu, kao što Gospod ljubi sinove Izrailjeve a oni gledaju za tuðim bogovima i ljube žbanove vinske.

2 So I bought her for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a lethech of barley.

I kupih je za petnaest sikala srebra i gomor i po jeèma.

3 Then I said to her, “You must live with me for many days; you must not be promiscuous or belong to another, and I will do the same for you.”

I rekoh joj: sjedi kod mene dugo vremena, i ne kurvaj se, i ne budi drugoga; tako æu i ja biti tvoj.

4 For the Israelites must live many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, and without ephod or idol.

Jer æe dugo vremena sinovi Izrailjevi sjedjeti bez cara i bez kneza i bez žrtve i bez stupa i bez opleæka i likova.

5 Afterward, the people of Israel will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They will come trembling to the LORD and to His goodness in the last days.

Poslije æe se obratiti i tražiæe Gospoda Boga svojega i Davida cara svojega, i u strahu æe pristupiti ka Gospodu i blagosti njegovoj u pošljednja vremena.
