Hosea 2
1 Say to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.
Svojim bratom recite: ›Moje ljudstvo‹ in svojim sestram: ›Pomiloščena.‹
2 Take up the cause against your mother, take it up, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; let her put away her loose ways from her face, and her false ways from between her breasts;
Pravdajte se s svojo materjo, pravdajte, kajti ona ni moja žena niti jaz nisem njen soprog. Naj torej odloži svoja vlačugarstva iz svojega pogleda in svoja zakonolomstva izmed svojih prsi,
3 For fear that I may take away her robe from her, making her uncovered as in the day of her birth; making her like a waste place and a dry land, causing her death through need of water.
da je ne bom slekel do golega in jo postavil kakor na dan, ko je bila rojena in jo naredil kakor divjino in jo postavil kakor suho deželo in jo pogubil z žejo.
4 And I will have no mercy on her children, for they are the children of her loose ways.
Ne bom se usmilil njenih otrok, kajti oni so otroci vlačugarstev.
5 For their mother has been untrue; she who gave them birth has done things of shame, for she said, I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my linen, my oil and my wine.
Kajti njihova mati je igrala pocestnico. Ta, ki jih je spočela, je storila sramotno, kajti rekla je: ›Hodila bom za svojimi ljubimci, ki mi dajejo moj kruh in mojo vodo, mojo volno in moj lan, moje olje in mojo pijačo.‹
6 For this cause I will put thorns in her road, building up a wall round her so that she may not go on her way.
Zatorej glej, tvojo pot bom ogradil s trnjem in naredil zid, da ne bo našla svojih steza.
7 And if she goes after her lovers she will not overtake them; if she makes search for them she will not see them; then will she say, I will go back to my first husband, for then it was better for me than now.
Sledila bo za svojimi ljubimci, toda ne bo jih dohitela in iskala jih bo, toda ne bo jih našla. Tedaj bo rekla: ›Šla bom in se vrnila k svojemu prvemu soprogu, kajti takrat je bilo z menoj bolje kakor sedaj.‹
8 For she had no knowledge that it was I who gave her the grain and the wine and the oil, increasing her silver and gold which they gave to the Baal.
Kajti ni vedela, da sem ji jaz dajal njeno žito, vino, olje in množil njeno srebro in zlato, ki so ga pripravili za Báala.
9 So I will take away again my grain in its time and my wine, and I will take away my wool and my linen with which her body might have been covered.
Zatorej se bom vrnil in odvzel svoje žito ob njegovem času in svoje vino v njegovem obdobju in nazaj bom dobil svojo volno in svoj lan, izročen, da pokrije njeno nagoto.
10 And now I will make her shame clear before the eyes of her lovers, and no one will take her out of my hand.
Sedaj bom odkril njeno nespodobnost pred očmi njenih ljubimcev in nihče je ne bo rešil iz moje roke.
11 And I will put an end to all her joy, her feasts, her new moons, and her Sabbaths, and all her regular meetings.
Prav tako bom vsemu njenemu veselju povzročil, da bo prenehalo, njenim prazničnim dnevom, njenim mlajem, njenim šabatom in vsem njenim slovesnim praznikom.
12 And I will make waste her vines and her fig-trees, of which she has said, These are the payments which my lovers have made to me; and I will make them a waste of trees, and the beasts of the field will take them for food.
Uničil bom njene trte in njena figova drevesa, o katerih je rekla: ›To so moje nagrade, ki so mi jih dajali moji ljubimci.‹ Jaz pa jih bom naredil za gozd in živali polja jih bodo jedle.
13 And I will give her punishment for the days of the Baals, to whom she has been burning perfumes, when she made herself fair with her nose-rings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, giving no thought to me, says the Lord.
Na njej bom obiskal dneve Báalov, na katere jim je zažigala kadilo in se krasila s svojimi uhani in svojimi dragocenostmi in hodila za svojimi ljubimci, mene pa pozabila, « govori Gospod.
14 For this cause I will make her come into the waste land and will say words of comfort to her.
»Zatorej glej, jaz jo bom privabil in jo pripeljal v divjino in ji tolažilno prigovarjal.
15 And I will give her vine-gardens from there, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope; and she will give her answer there as in the days when she was young, and as in the time when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
Jaz ji bom od tam dal njene vinograde in dolino Ahór za vrata upanja in ona bo tam prepevala kakor v dneh svoje mladosti in kakor na dan, ko je prišla gor iz egiptovske dežele.
16 And in that day, says the Lord, you will say to me, Ishi; and you will never again give me the name of Baali;
In zgodilo se bo tisti dan, « govori Gospod, » da me boš klicala: ›Ishi‹ in ne boš me več klicala: ›Báali.‹
17 For I will take away the names of the Baals out of her mouth, and never again will she say their names.
Kajti odstranil bom imena Báalov iz njenih ust in po njihovem imenu se jih ne bodo več spominjali.
18 And in that day I will make an agreement for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of heaven and the things which go low on the earth; I will put an end to the bow and the sword and war in all the land, and will make them take their rest in peace.
Na ta dan bom zanje sklenil zavezo s poljskimi živalmi, s perjadjo neba in s plazečimi stvarmi zemlje. Prelomil bom lok, meč in bitko z zemlje in storil jim bom, da se varno zleknejo.
19 And I will take you as my bride for ever; truly, I will take you as my bride in righteousness and in right judging, in love and in mercies.
In zaročil te bom k sebi za vedno. Da, zaročil te bom k sebi v pravičnosti, v sodbi, v ljubeči skrbnosti in v milostih.
20 I will take you as my bride in good faith, and you will have knowledge of the Lord.
Zaročil te bom k sebi, celo v zvestobi in spoznala boš Gospoda.
21 And it will be, in that day, says the Lord, that I will give an answer to the heavens, and the heavens to the earth;
Zgodilo se bo na tisti dan; uslišal bom, « govori Gospod, »uslišal bom nebo in to bo uslišalo zemljo
22 And the earth will give its answer to the grain and the wine and the oil, and they will give an answer to Jezreel;
in zemlja bo uslišala žito in vino in olje in ti bodo uslišali Jezreéla.
23 And I will put her as seed in the earth, and I will have mercy on her to whom no mercy was given; and I will say to those who were not my people, You are my people, and they will say, My God.
Posejal si jo bom na zemlji in usmilil se bom nje, ki ni dosegla usmiljenja in rekel bom tistim, ki niso bili moje ljudstvo: ›Vi ste moje ljudstvo.‹ In oni bodo rekli: › Ti si moj Bog.‹«
