Osee 11
1 Early in the morning were they cast off, the king of Israel has been cast off: for Israel is a child, and I loved him, and out of Egypt have I called his children.
Kad Izrailj bješe dijete, ljubljah ga, i iz Misira dozvah sina svojega.
2 As I called them, so they departed from my presence: they sacrificed to Baalim, and burnt incense to graven images.
Koliko ih zvaše, toliko oni odlaziše od njih; prinosiše žrtve Valima, kadiše likovima.
3 Yet I bound the feet of Ephraim, I took him on my arm; but they knew not that I healed them.
Ja uèih Jefrema hoditi držeæi ga za ruke, ali ne poznaše da sam ih ja lijeèio.
4 When men were destroyed, I drew them with the bands of my love: and I will be to them as a man striking [another] on his cheek: and I will have respect to him, I will prevail with him.
Vukoh ih uzicama èovjeèjim, užima ljubavnijem; i bijah im kao oni koji im skidaju jaram s èeljusti, i davah im hranu.
5 Ephraim lived in Egypt; and [as for] the Assyrian, he was his king, because he would not return.
Neæe se vratiti u zemlju Misirsku, nego æe mu Asirac biti car, jer se ne htješe obratiti.
6 And in his cities he prevailed not with the sword, and he ceased [to war] with his hands: and they shall eat [of the fruit] of their own devices:
I maè æe stajati u gradovima njegovijem, i potræe prijevornice njegove i proždrijeti za namjere njihove.
7 and his people [shall] cleave fondly to their habitation; but God shall be angry with his precious things, and shall not at all exalt him.
Narod je moj prionuo za otpad od mene; zovu ga k višnjemu, ali se nijedan ne podiže.
8 How shall I deal with you, Ephraim? [how] shall I protect you, Israel? what shall I do with you? I will make you as Adama, and as Seboim; my heart is turned at once, my repentance is powerfully excited.
Kako da te dam, Jefreme? da te predam, Izrailju? kako da uèinim od tebe kao od Adame? da te obratim da budeš kao Sevojim? Ustreptalo je srce moje u meni, uskolebala se utroba moja od žalosti.
9 I will not act according to the fury of my wrath, I will not abandon Ephraim to be utterly destroyed: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One within you: and I will not enter into the city.
Neæu izvršiti ljutoga gnjeva svojega, neæu opet zatrti Jefrema; jer sam ja Bog a ne èovjek, svetac usred tebe; neæu doæi na grad.
10 I will go after the Lord: he shall utter [his voice] as a lion: for he shall roar, and the children of the waters shall be amazed.
Iæi æe oni za Gospodom; on æe rikati kao lav; kad rikne, sa strahom æe dotrèati sinovi s mora;
11 They shall be amazed [and fly] as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of the Assyrians: and I will restore them to their houses, says the Lord.
Sa strahom æe dotrèati iz Misira kao ptica, i kao golub iz zemlje Asirske; i naseliæu ih u kuæama njihovijem, govori Gospod.
12 Ephraim has compassed me with falsehood, and the house of Israel and Juda with ungodliness: [but] now God knows them, and they shall be called God's holy people.
Opkolio me je Jefrem lažju i dom Izrailjev prijevarom; ali Juda još vlada s Bogom i vjeran je sa svetima.
